Does anybody know what the two extra dark grey pieces in the Nui-Rama set
are for? I can't find them in the instructions anywhere. The rubber bands
were wrapped around them when I took them out of the box. It looks like the
part number on them is 41752, but I can't find them in any of the
references. It's difficult to describe what the pieces look like so I
thought I could do a text drawing and have everyone use the 'View Raw
Message' option to see it lined up. So here goes.
Long Side Short Side Top

------- ----- -------
Maybe a little description will help. On the long side it looks like it has
3 levels. The top and bottom levels are like 'feet' with 'treads' on the
outer surfaces (the top tread facing up, the bottom facing down). The bottom
'foot' is the larger of the two. The middle level is like a more narrow
'foot' but with no treads. This level has two connector peg holes
side-by-side through it (illustrated by the parenthesis).
So with that long and most likely unnecessary explanation, does anyone know
what these pieces are? Aside from that, does anyone have any creatives uses
for the pieces?

| These are in the Manas set also. I think they just store the rubber bands. I must say I am _very_ thankful for these. Loose lying rubber bands in my technic box-o-pieces have always ticked me off a little, and the Technic peg holes are a nice touch. (...) (24 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

| (...) It only occurred to me this morning that this piece is designedto sort out two different sizes of bands. There are two black bands that show up a lot in Bionicles sets and this gizmo fits them both equally well. (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
