(...) I don't think it is the case here, since two different kind of parts have exactly the same hue. And with a dirty nozzle you usually don't get an homogeneous color.

(...) Wow. Yellow? I will be interested whether this is just another dirty nozzle or consistent new hue. Dirty nozzle means not pure yellow--my yellows are greenish, like they were made immediately after a blue run. Two bad shades came in the same (...)

(...) Yes it does, but without the 2x4s, your boom will be able to shear - ie the parallelogram created by the beams & 1x4 plates only has friction holding it square, and a long boom built that way may fail. If the 1x4s are on the top/bottom it (...) (21 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
