What would be your Lego part wish?

This topic came up a few months back on the MichLUG mailing list and I modeled up a few of the wish parts.

Curved Parts:


Gothic Arches:


Personally, I’m rather fond of the gothic arches, so I’d have to pick the 1x6x3 arch as my wish part.

Nice diagrams Jason (and fellow Michiganian)!

I mentioned a 1x6x2 Gothic arch, but I guess it would be too narrow in the middle, a 1x6x3 arch makes much more sense. Maybe even a 1x5x5 half Gothic arch would be nice.

One other thing about arches.... I wish there were a 1x3x1 arch, but not the variety that we know about. I would like it to be 3/4 of a 1x4x1 arch. It would only be attachable to a brick on one side. That way you could build arches/windows closer together (with only a 1 stud wide partition). Currently the only way to do that is to stagger them (at different levels), but that places the arches at different levels.
