Part 6135 (palm tree/Technic horn) - N. W. Perry - 2019-12-14
I noticed something's up with 6135.dat—it should fit all the way onto a Technic axle pin (see for example set 8880), but the axle hole isn't deep enough—only 16 LDU, but should be a full stud.
Unfortunately I don't have this part in real life, so I'm not sure how it would have to be adjusted, but it's clearly not as simple as just extending the axle hole.

There's at least five different designs of this part.

This picture show only four, but there is also 2536e at Bricklink.
So maybe one of them looks like this and is correct?
And how about that partnumber, 2536? Where does it come from?

Corrected shapes are now on PT:

Initial parts are to be obsoletized...
For the curious: two stacked round plates on stud fill exactly the top cavity.

Why two links to the same file, 2563a ?
How does this affect the complete palm shortcut?

Are you still working on the fifth version 2536e? Or is that one simply a "smoother" version of 2536a?

I don't think it is. Looks like the stud indentations are flat.

Quote:How does this affect the complete palm shortcut?Geometry change doesn't affect tree shape, but indeed the shortcut should refer to the new parts, not the obsoletized one.

And now it fits!
