Thanks Tobbe - I had actually thought of that, and I was a cat's whisker away from doing so, despite the warnings from another lugnetter that the structure of the 8 tooth gear may be too weak to handle being "rebored", but fortunately I (...)

| | | | (...) Jennifer, In light of the recent thread on modifying parts in lugnet.build, I think you had better come clean and tell us which part you modified, why you modified it, and how you modified it. The first step in getting beyond the problem is (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

| | | | | (...) Well, as long as no other material is added to the parts I suppose it's still pure LEGO.

I would love to see Lego come out with more geartrain parts, and if we could come up with a favorite set of modifications it might encourage them to make (...)

I've never tried that - it sounds like a good idea, although for some reason I'd feel more guilty about "modifying" the minifig fireman's axe than I would about a 3-axle with stud :-) (...)
