  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
Hello! For some reason I hate this part: (URL). Even if I use it sometimes I have way too many of these. And they come in almost every set. Every once in a while when parting a set I don't even bother putting them in their respective sorting box but (...) (19 years ago, 31-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) Minitalia bricks are like that! I'm glad that the headlight/washing machine brick has been redeemed! It's one of my faves. I can see why Gary doesn't care for it, it's indeed a poor substitute for a 1x1 window brick, but it's tres useful! (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts, FTX)

(...) I use something like that myself, but with some of the studless constructions - I have had the axle start to bend worryingly before the pins pop. I dont like sacrificing Lego though. another thing I hate is when an axle pin gets stuck, and (...) (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)

(...) I have one of these on my building table (URL) it works wonders. There's only ever been a couple i've needed to demolish with pliers. ROSCO (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)
 
  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
(...) If there is one part I hate - it must be the old technic friction pin. When they get stuck, they get well and truly wedged, and when building "new" technic style models based on liftarms - you get one of those in by accident, you are in for a (...)

(...) snip (...) Agreed! Lately, I've been noticing a lot of building problems that could be solved by hollow-stud plates/bricks. Marc Nelson Jr. (URL) Marc's Creations>> (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
(...) These are nice for single color steam domes. I never liked the notched edges on 2x2 round brick. (...) My initial reaction to this part was of a similar vein, but I recently built a large retainer wall, using mostly 1xNx5 and 2xNx1 bricks. And (...)

  Request for LEGO Factory bag content information

(...) That's probably the one. If so, I retract my general hate for it. It's handy (in transparent) but I hate opaque versions. Tim (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
(...) Do you mean [LDrawPart 30151:46]? That part started out as a cover for treasure in the Adventurers; its hollowness is an important aspect of the part. Steve (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
(...) Oooh. Fun game... I discovered a new piece just last night which I already hate. Don't own any or know what it's called (2x2 tall dome?) but it is a single part which could be made from a 2x2 round with a 2x2 dome on top. I can see absolutely (...)

(...) I really dislike the basketball net. I wish it could connect in some way to more than one piece. It would be useful for numerous things if onlt it could be connected better. For that matter I dislike nearly all of the specialty sports parts. (...) (19 years ago, 30-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Lego Parts You Hate....
 
(...) You don't like headlight bricks? o.0 Wow. I never thought I'd hear someone say they disliked one of the most useful and beloved pieces out there.

  Re: Overview of LEGO Factory suggestions
 
(...) Hundreds of dollars is what it should cost. What it would actually cost under the current LF system, even if the parts were available at all, would probably be thousands of dollars.

  Re: Box scans of 320 Twin Engine Plane
 
(...) Dave, I checked my 320 box and mine says 123 Piece on both ends. I also noticed that my box says 320:270, where yours says 320 only. I've noticed this second number on many (most) Model Maker sets but I don't know what it means, or which style (...) (19 years ago, 29-Aug-05, to lugnet.general)
