| Re: Lengths in “L” and 18654 - SylvainLS (46) | [...] Because there’s no constistence to the catalogue? [...] Okay… provided we agree on what a “L” is and out-of-system dimensions like “2/3 L” are verified before being [...]

| Re: Lengths in “L” and 18654 - SylvainLS (46) | [...] But (Part 6232) has only one pin, or is the other half considered hidden inside the brick? And (Part 15100) (Part 6628) and the like are “pin”s, not “half-pin”s and there’s [...]

| Re: Lengths in “L” and 18654 - SylvainLS (46) | [...] Yes, and wes say “stud” for the distance between the centers of two studs / the width of 1-stud-wide brick or plate. [...] Exactly, “BEAM 1X1” is its LEGO name. And [...]

| Lengths in “L” and 18654 - SylvainLS (46) | I’m wondering what’s the rationale for having changed the name (and dimensions) of (Part 18654) from “1 L” to “2/3 L”. I can’t see where it’s 0.67L. Especially if I [...]

| Re: inconsistencies - SylvainLS (46) | [...] Indeed. But what I’m against, and I wasn’t clear, is the use of the term “jumper” for a tile with studs + plate without studs category. For me, “jumper” is specific to [...]

| Re: inconsistencies - SylvainLS (46) | [...] The database won’t allow it. A part can only be in one category. Because they are “categories,” not “tags.” A tag system was asked for, many times.

| Re: inconsistencies - SylvainLS (46) | [...] Against. I don’t know why “jumper” was chosen. The similarity with electrical jumpers (little wires that “jump” over the main circuits, or little thingies to connect [...]

| Re: inconsistencies - SylvainLS (46) | [...] I’d have said it’s the number of studs (or ratio). Something like 50%+1 of studs missing means it’s a tile, but some “tiles” have 50% of their studs and some [...]
