(...) Yes and no. A year back or so, someone was asking if TLC had ever made 1x1 plates in orange. I could not find any, but I did try some LEGO-modification by taking a 1x1 plate with clip-lite and very carefully trimming off the clip-lite with an (...)

(...) Of course you're correct. I guess I thought of all the parts that allow 180 degree connections as "hermaphrodite", but realize now that's not the accurate term. I can see myself a)thinking, "I wonder what this little pin is for?" and then b) (...) (21 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

(...) Now that I think of it, isn't "hermaphrodite" incorrect in this context? I mean, a 1x1 brick is hermaphroditic re: male:female connection points. The part you're describing might be more accurately described as male:male. Dave! (21 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts, FTX)

(...) No, Lego apparently can't justify the cost of producing the mold for such a part, nor that of a plate with studs on both sides; however, you can have your fill of useful parts like this: (URL) :-) Mark (21 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.parts, FTX)
