(...) I have not idea why I said Richard. Yes it was David - I was looking at the wrong post when I check to see who it was from. -mark (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
(...) I see that David Wertz reported one in his copy of 4706 ( (URL) ), but also Richard? I must have missed his post to that effect... Too bad it's in both sets :( I had hoped it would only be specific to one... DaveE (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

In lugnet.harrypotter, David Eaton writes: <snip> (...) So for clarification on the findings, 4706 does\can have a random defective part in it.

  Re: A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
I happened to notice this problem right off when I built the staircase for my 4706 Forbidden Corridor a while back. It was super obvious because when I spiraled the staircase for the first time, right in the middle, there was a gap, but the rest (...)

(...) They asked for a return of the product items once when I asked them to replace 17 badly smudged or poorly printed KK Archer heads. They even sent me an envelope postage prepaid with which to mail them back to the customer service dept. I can't (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

  Re: A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
(...) From which set? And all non-defective, I presume? For the moment I'm wondering more whether defective pieces have consistant numbers, and whether, within a single set, if any normal AND defective steps have the same numbers...

  Re: A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
(...) That was my thought-- and even more of an easy-to-overlook mistake because the stairs slide so easily. As I said, I was completely unaware that there was a problem until I actually went and checked a 2nd time. I don't expect that this will be (...)

  Re: A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
(...) Looks like someone assembled the molds wrong IMO. That could explain why there is a 180 degree difference in the notches in the underside of the stair pieces. Simple enough of a mistake to overlook, but large enough to cause significant (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

(...) the stair pieces in these sets are consistent or random? 1-01 (2) 1-02 (2) 2-01 2-02 3-01 3-02 (2) 4-02 5-01 6-01 (3) 7-01 8-02 -------- 16 ... and these seem to be all good. -- Pawel (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)
 
  A closer look at defective spiral stairs
 
A couple days ago, Doyle Nelson alerted us all to re-examine our HP stairs: (URL) actually didn't remember a problem building either set, though upon closer inspection, I actually DID recieve "defective" stairs. It's not overly problematical or (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.lego) !

  Re: Anyone else notice the stair problem???
 
(...) This issue was an easy fix, and will make the stairs not slide at all. Of course what WOULD have been nice was for Lego to have the bricks where they do not slide. Oh well. P.S. I know what you mean, Pic isn’t necessary Doyle (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)
 
  Re: Anyone else notice the stair problem???
 
(...) This all depends on your building's structure, but assuming you have the stair case leading to a second floor landing, etc., a jumper brick (or other mechanism)could a) be extended from a few bricks beneath your second floor and behind the (...)

  Hagrid + Troll = FuN!
 
Has anyone placed the Trolls loin-cloth vest and skirt upon Hagrid? Well, I did! & It looks pretty good… The Troll's vest fits PERFECTLY over Hagrids and helps fill-out his upper body.

  Re: Anyone else notice the stair problem???
 
(...) Your missing the point, it isn't the sliding, it is that some pieces, 26% in my case where a totally different key system and when using these bricks they leave major 1/16th in. gaps in between the steps.
