(...) Your argument is just as baseless as mine. Putting together (packing) an old Technic set would only cost more because they used to use more bricks (using value as a comparison). And I never actually mentioned old sets in my post. (...) My (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.dear-lego)

Furthermore, Lego representatives have pointed out on several (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.dear-lego)

There is a purpose in the size of Technic bushings. If they were any wider, your gear train would bind, In real life gear trains, Shimming washers are used to adjust gear positions for mesh, decreasing backlash and to reduce friction. If you are (...) (23 years ago, 18-Feb-02, to lugnet.technic)
