But sometimes, I just _have_ to make a modification. :-)
I have twice.
Once on a 4x4 turntable - separated it and ground a small amount from
the joint on the top half. I needed it to make the radome for my
Apache.
And I reamed out the axle holes on a 2x2 wheel plate so that a Technic
arm joint pin would fit into the hole. For my little two-legged rover
on the ULV-017.
Neither one was a big change, and I agonized for quite a while over
them both. But ultimately, I deemed it a worthwhile sacrifice.
I remember that Karim Nassar had to modify a part long ago for one of
his models. He had to shorten a 6 long axle down to 5 long.
And now that is a manufactured product of TLG. (1) Cool.

1. No revelance to the debate. Just an interesting factoid.
