SearchFunction Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) I do not have this part http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=11010 I was wondering if someone could verify if its possible to put a stud in from both the top AND the bottom and use it to reverse the direction 180 degrees?

L@go Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Yes, it is. But be aware that the space between the two opposite-facing bricks will be bigger than one plate - the height of two studs combined is bigger than one plate, so it's not a solution that's "in system". You'll see that if you put two plates on top of each other with the studs facing towards the middle, and try to wedge a plate in between. This also means that the whole height of both studs won't go into the ring - there'll be a gap between the ring and the surface of the plate on one or both sides of the ring. Did that make sense?

antp Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 If that is due to the "Lego" writing on the studs, I guess it would work with http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=85861 instead of the regular 1x1 round? Quote
SearchFunction Posted March 10, 2015 Author Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Did that make sense? Yep I got it, thanks for testing it out L@go. LDD will not snap to both openings, but it looked to me like there was space for 2 studs in it. antp: That could maybe be the reason. Edited March 10, 2015 by SearchFunction Quote

I don't think it is. If you try the same test with any element with hollow studs, just put them stud to stud and then try to wedge a plate in between, you'll see that the height of two studs is still bigger than one plate is thick.

Jared Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Yup, in fact, I'm in the middle of a project that's doing that right now! Just be careful though, because the connection isn't very strong. Quote

Indeed, the difference is small, but it is there Quote
