Could someone with this set please let me know about the part on the engines which is an axle with peg-holes at each end. How long are they? How many studs are there between the axle holes? Any help appreciated. -John Van (25 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) There aren't any studs. It's just a long cross-axle. Steve (25 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I think you might misunderstand. The way I read John's post was: "When laid on a plate, how many studs would be covered by this piece?

(...) John- These are not new. They are well-known, well-loved and somewhat rare 16L axles with end-connectors. Steve (25 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) OK. Sorry if I was curt, terse, or too vague. I occasionally misjudge what messages need smileys, and in which the intent is clear without the help. John has been going on about wanting to find out the length of the extension rods in the (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Well I'll be darned. Based on the pics, I was certain these were going to be a shorter version of the axle with end connectors. -John Van Steve Bliss wrote in message <36e416ba.19410902@l...et.com>... (...) engines (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.cad.dev)

(...) And if a less-familiar name was attached to the post, it probably would have worked, too. I was just about to hit the "reply" button when I saw it was you. And about "going on" about the length, I guess I figured that if someone had posted a (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) That makes sense. (...) I just double-checked. The axle-links are still the same length as a 16L beam. They do stick out, but those 3x3x2 cones on the back of the nacelles help balance things out a bit. Steve (25 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.starwars)
