|
| I bought a couple
thinking that I could use them as lids for
just like how you can use a 2X2 round plate as a lid for a 2X2 barrel.
It seems to be very close to fitting, but mine don't snap down all the way
around. I worry that if I force it, I'll end up breaking the round plate.
Has anyone used these as lids for large barrels, and if so, is there a trick
to getting them all the way down?
Thanks,
David

The 4x4 radar dish definitely fits on the large barrel pretty well.

I tried right now. It fits, but the round plate is clearly bending.

You did what I could not! If the plate bends when it's all the way on the
barrel, I think I won't use the 4X4 plates.

This would be a great candidate for a redesign to make it in system. It was a
great part. I wish they still made them.

Maybe that’s why they don’t make it any more?
