special parts made in Europe ? The Duplo Toolo I have even says
"Contents made in SWITZERLAND & USA" (no mention of Denmark). Is it
possible that all the parts we want would have to be made in Europe ? If
so, then Enfield does not even have the molds.

According to a book I read a while ago ('LEGO and Godtfred Kirk Christiansen'
It is about GKC,  LEGO A/S, and The LEGO Company, written by a Danish author -
Ole Steen Hansen) all Technic is made in Switzerland, USA only made bricks to
begin with (unstated if they now do anything else, it's not a very thick
book).
