hey! i want to attach a normal lego stud (or its bottom counterpart, doesn't matter) to a rotating technic axle, so that a normal 1x1 plate, tile or brick can rotate with it. - it HAS to be only 1 stud at the end, something with 2x2 may be inbetween (...) (17 years ago, 4-Sep-07, to lugnet.technic)
