Every time I think I've seen all the variations of parts TLG comes up with, I find one I haven't yet come across!! I hope Jake McKee and his colleagues keep that up! Of course, with the Enzo Ferrari being a new set, it's fairly easy to miss some (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

If he is suggesting what I think he is - that is an axle elbow which has three orthoganal connections - it can be acheived (somewhat less neat) with a 90 degree elbow, an axle pin and an axle joiner. If Xanthra actually means Technic Beams - then (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

Yep. poor choice of words on my part : ( Instead of planes, lets use lines as you suggest. I'd like a studless "3d" version of that corner piece you pointed out that joins 3 beams at the intestection point of 3 mutually perpendicular lines. It just (...)

I'll see your two plane connector and raise you one more : ) I'd love to see "corner connectors" or "tribows" that tie 3 beams on 3 mutually orthagonal planes together in a sturdy way. Just think of what we could do in technic, if we could easily (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

That's called a studless beam. :) With the latest trend towards studless stuff in Technic, I'd like a way to connect two beams at 90 degrees in the same plane. Something like this part: (URL) (...)

I have to admit Patrick - that really would be a worthwhile part - I also think that the inverse peice in a two-plate high design iwth stud receptacles on both sides would be a very useful peice. Wouldnt this be a matter better discussed in the (...) (19 years ago, 20-Apr-05, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)
