I just took apart my latest creation and realized that I didn't want to
take part some sections. I've often kept certain sub-parts and many
copies of the same assemblies. When I build something new I can reach
for a solution just by rummaging through this pile.
Does anyone else keep a drawer of subassemblies???
What is your favorite, what problem does it solve, do you have a
picture?
Would there be interest in a repository of these ideas?
As an example, I have several of these (worm to 24T gear combo) in a
drawer that I find useful. Granted this part is not my idea; I learned
of it from the 8239 cyberslam set.

If enough people post links to pictures I'd be happy to host them all on
one site.

Fred has written a paper called The Art of LEGO Design which features some of these cliches and is well worth the read. You can find it linked in .pdf form (...)
