Good site! Now the non-purists can use longer pistons (bimba) and one-way
valves (BBB). Do you think the posting of the bimba name sparked a desire
for BBB to make lego parts too, or were the two company names randomly
mentioned at the same time?

Nathan, I think its more likely that AFOLs simply asked Ben for these after
seeing the great work he did on the train wheels. I know I asked him for other
things - I wish Id thought of these too :) And it is likely that tooling up to
produce these took several months, so I think no, there is unlikely to be a
connection.
