Change description or add keywords - Jaco van der Molen - 2023-03-28
Hi all,
Since we now have a 1x5 plate, can we please add keyword "plate 1x5" to
- 2711 Technic rotor 2 blade with 2 studs
- 32124 Technic rotor 2 blade with 4 studs
I always thought of 2711 more like i.e. 4262 Technic Plate 1x6 with Holes, so 2711 to me is more like "Technic plate 1x5 with Holes and Center Axle Hole"
Regarding 32124 is more often used as a plate that a rotor, to achieve an odd length or width or span 5 studs instead of using a 1x2 and 1x3 nowadays.
Bricklinks description of 32124 is "Technic, Plate 1 x 5 with Smooth Ends, 4 Studs and Center Axle Hole", which is IMHO a better description.
Though without "Technic" and also LDaw tends to use Round instead of Smooth here, like in 35480 (Plate 1x2 with Round Ends)
I suggest to rename 32124 to "Plate 1 x 5 with Round Ends, 4 Studs and Center Axle Hole"
Or is this a too wild idea?
Any thoughts?
