 | | 4x4 white quarter-circle bricks for auction/trade
|
|
OK, the bidding on these 20 bricks in a wellknown auction has gotten insane enough that I decided to see if I had enough of them to list as a solitary auction. Whaddya know, I do. I have 16 of them. With them ready to jump over $2/each in that (...) (26 years ago, 9-May-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

Both the "2x2 Cylinder Brick" and the "2x2 Quarter-Circle Brick" are 1 brick tall, but a cylinder (in geometry) actually has a volume and a circle (in geometry) has only circumference to speak of.
