Favorite Technic Part

[Aventador2004]

i was wondering through all years of technic what is your favorite piece

my personal favorite part is 11214 Technic Axle Pin 3L with Friction Ridges Lengthwise and 1L Axle 

tell me your thoughts

My favourite is a rim. You can so much with a rim, it's unbelievable.

Mine is the iconic black friction pin.  I am not sure if any of you die hard technic fans have ever seen one, so I will post a picture.

i have seen it as it is used in every technic set after they were made

I like the 3L fiction pin

[ColletArrow]

How about 6536 cross block? Both it and it's older brother 42003 have proven very useful to me several times. And you can make an impossible structure out of three of them and three axle-pins !

[Didumos69]

Definitely

High five!

Coming back from my dark ages a couple of years ago this was the first piece I loved the most of all the new stuff and still do, it's such an awesome strong versatile part.

The past year this part has been coming in close second:

I feel like I am cheating every time I use it...

Seriously, this is my favorite part. And I was about to post that it almost feels like cheating

The pin with pin hole is my 2nd favorite

I agree. I also love the portal hub.

I love any axle with stop. It helps a lot when you need something to not come apart, or an axle to not walk out.

What are the advantages to using this piece vs. the other hubs?  I've only used it once for 42030.

It was sarcasm.

I actually kind of hate this part.  While it does open up a lot of build possibilities, it can also be really difficult to install.  This is partially because of the stiff plastic used and partially because it rotates out of the way and has little to hold onto.

My favorite part is probably this.

[DrJB]

The parts below ... for building all sorts of 'bucky balls'.

  

... and these, for building holonomic wheels

 

... and these, for TrisStar wheels

... and these, for rubber tracks (a la Mahjqa)

... and this part, for one day bulding a helicopter rotor with both cyclic/collective controls

... and Lastly, these for one day building my own 'small' bucket-wheel excavator

Needless to say, I've been collecting these parts for some time.

Probably will say the 5x7 frame. Super useful if you want to build large structures.

[dhc6twinotter]

Differential, particularly the older ones.  There are some pretty awesome mechanical things that can be done with them!
