Cylinder  1 x  1 x 4.333 with Handle (87617) - Jaco van der Molen - 2024-02-09

Hi,

Building something I was looking for the Cylinder  1 x  1 x 4.333 with Handle (part 87617)
I spent at least 15 minutes searching before finding it.
I assumed it had the word "Bar" in the description or as a keyword.

Also, I wonder what this part has to do with 87618 Bar  4.5L with Handle? (forgive me if this is dump question ;-)
Part 87618 has Bar in the description.

Since is seems 87618 and 87617 are related, can we make this more consistant: either choose Bar or Handle in the description?
Or add keyword bar to one and handle to the other?

Jaco

Yes, we should harmonize this.

When I made them I placed the word "piston" in both parts and the sibling number in the other part.
Search for one of the numbers, and you'll find the other one too.

Ah yes, OK. That explains that. Tnx.

Still we need to make up our mind on the "bar" / "handle" thing.

"Handle" is already present in both descriptions.
How about using "Bar Handle" in both parts?
