Has anyone come up with a good solution for mounting 1x1 round rockets/missles horizontally to the underside of wings or onto the back of armoured vehicles. I am trying to work up some nice, detachable missle racks for BrickWars. I would love to see (...) (23 years ago, 24-Aug-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.build.mecha)

Build a 1x1 "headlight" into the body of the missle? That way it can be attached many different ways. I use this all the time. Here, I even found the part: (URL) non-LEGO solution is to use the round version of this part: (URL) MEGABLOCKS or one of (...)

How about mixing in a minifig cup <part:3899> with the round 1x1 bricks? I don't have any handy at the moment, but if I recall correctly the recessed bottom of the round bricks will fit into the top of the cup. Then you can use a clip to attach the (...)
