Hi all, Recently I purchased a few technic hooks: (2 URLs) Most were fine, but one of the hooks, all the holes were a "tight fit" for axles it took more than reasonable force to turn an axle in them. Now while 3 of the holes don't generally (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-04, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) The GMLTC has used aquarium air hoses with some success - you can get them at any store that sells aquariums and other pet supplies. And they're a LOT cheaper than the LEGO pneumatic tubing! JohnG, GMLTC (23 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.technic)

Hi, Has anyone built a Starwars UCS-style display stand for the 7470 or 8480 space shuttles that can withstand their weight without collapsing?
