Here’s an idea for a train door “look” that is inset by less than 1/2-stud.>

I used a similar thing for the first version of my WAP-5’s grille once:

But I hadn’t really delved into using it for a different door offset, obvious though it may be. However, I had been toying with the idea of using headlight bricks in a similar manner for the same application. Nevertheless, its a good application, thanks for the note :-D

Yeah, to use the backside of two 1x1 headlight bricks instead of the Technic brick 1x2 with two side holes might offer a better stiction connection to the “L” brack with 1/2-plate thickness.

Thanks. later,
