BTW, you’re using an illegal connection (technic pin in tubes, the pins are compressed
in the tubes, that’s bad) between
and
Instead, replace the 4L bar you’re using to connect 49308 to the 2x2 round bricks
with a 6L bar: make the bar go in (or through) the axle hole of 73111, then through
49308, then you should have enough to solidly connect to the 2x2 round bricks.
And if I’m mistaken and 49308’s stud is not totally open, you should reverse
73111 and use an axle to connect it to the cone
so that you can use stud connection between 73111 and 49308.

| Hi Sylvain. Thank you for your comment and your suggestion.
I am stashing the red-glowing second stage engine inside part 73111, by using
part 30136. It fits nicely besides it while still supporting the 6233 cone. But
that will leave no room for the 6L bar.

You’re stressing the pin: you have to force the pin to enter the tube and it
can’t expand once it’s inside the tube.
That’s not “legal.” If ever this model is selected, that part of the build will
have to be changed anyway, so you better find another solution now.
I’m sure you can push a 6L bar inside 73111 so that it’s secured (not too loose)
and then can go through 49308 and then through the 2x2 round bricks, just prolonging
the 4L bar you’re already using. You don’t have to have the bar go further inside
73111 and collide with the rest of the build.
Also, on your picture in your other message, 30136 collides with the borders
of 73111. I’m not sure that’s not another illegal build. (Here again, it might
seem to fit IRL, but it might stress the parts too.)
Maybe you should simply use 1x1 round bricks instead.

Good suggestion, Sylvain. I have placed the modelled round 2x2 brick not pixelperfect
i see, hence it breaks through the wall. In real it seems to fit just right though,
it holds 2 of them without friction (however the blade will not fit in between
them). But 2 1x1 cylinders will do as well.
About the legalness of joining bricks that are 180 rotated at their bottom ends...
don't think there is a solution besides axles or blades. I will see if flipping
73111 will do the trick here. Thanks.
