   (...) add one layer of plate? My vote for 'first juniorization' would be (URL) 'Brick 4 x 2 Round Half Circle with Stud Notches'. It could easily be replaced by two quarter circle ones :-) Or (URL) 'Wing 4 x 8 Curved Left' ? It could have been built (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jul-05, to lugnet.general)

     (...) I don't have that part, and I just looked at it in Peeron. I didn't see the hole in the middle the first time. My bad. (...)
