| | Hi all!
Is there someone who knows this yellow one?
- Written '542' on the lower part. The letters before '542' is
unreadable for me, maybe 'S.Q.U.I.D' ?
- '@2021 The LEGO Group.' on the pole part.
- 23L, 18cm
Thanks in advance

It might be clutch strength measuring/testing tool that they use in the mould
making department. I vaguely remember something like this having come up on a
LEGO-site a while back.

that many sellers in the hopes that they will all change is a job for a fool.
Would it be possible to just quietly change the XRef?

Anybody have an idea what it is worth? Can not find anything
On the internet about prices, only that it is very rare.

Better with an image and a link:

You've got quite the rare set that even BrickEconomy doesn't have a price
on it.

Yes, thats why my question over here. Look everywhere at the internet, no known
prices
|
Could you add the inventory to Bricklink? At least that would give you the part
out value as a starting point.

"It said the reason for that was because extra steps were required in the
production process, which meant it needed to use more energy.
As a result, it said it has "decided not to progress" with making bricks
from the material."
I'm somewhat skeptical. If the new bricks would have caused more carbon emissions
because they require more energy to produce, then wouldn't that be less of
an issue if the energy used to create them was sourced from wind, solar, or nuclear?
|
If some of those extra steps are during brick production (moulding factories),
then tell me which of these countries are 100% “wind, solar, or nuclear”?
China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Hungary, Mexico, USA, Vietnam.
My guess is (most of) the extra steps are during the making of the raw material.
So, second question: in which country should the PET be recycled to use 100%
wind, solar, or nuclear?
You have more choice here (lots of more bad choices  ).
And then, how do you transport the to-be-recycled PET to this new recycling factory
and how do you transport the recycled pellets to the moulding factories? Without
adding more CO²?
(PET transport should be as CO²-expensive as for ABS (unless the weight is highly
different), so that question should reduce to: Without adding more transport?)
Besides, even if you found a magical country that has 100% wind, solar, or nuclear,
and that could produce the PET (yeah, that small 2-huts island won’t do), neither
wind, solar, or nuclear are 0% CO²: you’re using energy that could be used for
something else, so you’re requiring more energy capacity, so you’re requiring
more wind turbine, solar panel, or nuclear plant to be built, and that’s never
CO²-free.

Good questions making a good read.
Let's make that CO² → CO₂ and I totally agree. Did you use up all your Unicode
credits with the œ explanation? The ₂ Unicode U+2082 is intended for the fractional
part of custom fractions, but since this forum strips the (sub)2(/sub) markers,
this will do. Let's not square the carbon monoxide but stick to carbon-dioxide
only - or actually, this is more about the entire picture of energy transformation
that's irrevocably lost to entropy.

| | Hi,
I would like to know if there was any "mode" on brick studio to have
different perspectives on creation?
On Maya for example you can swap beetween 4 views like this picture and still
work on your creation.
That's the mode what i'm looking for. Is there any one on brick studio
or only the 3D view?

The program is called Studio or Bricklink Studio, and it's forum is found
at https://forum.bricklink.com
The answer to your question is yes and is found on this help page: https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/5409213150487-Camera-control-in-the-viewport
Both forum and help pages can be found under the red Studio icon at the top of
your Bricklink pages.
