March 14, 20186 yr Just as an informal announce, user Manybicks spotted that coming set 42082 (Rough Terrain Crane) will have a number of 24121 Gear Rack 11 x 11 Curved (4 of them, most probably) in black color. It's time to build big cranes without a color vomit situation, isn't it?
March 14, 20186 yr Can anyone identify this part - I think is Lego and is a helmet of same kind, approx 4 x 3 x 3L with one pin hole & one axle hole. There are no markings on it. Potential use for a GBC lift I have in mind and able to hold two balls. Edited March 14, 20186 yr by Doug72
March 14, 20186 yr another question - is there a plate 1 x 2 with open studs except this 4 hours ago, Void_S said: Just as an informal announce, user Manybicks spotted that coming set 42082 (Rough Terrain Crane) will have a number of 24121 Gear Rack 11 x 11 Curved (4 of them, most probably) in black color.

March 14, 20186 yr @Doug72 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=44790#T=S&O={"iconly":0} From the Hockey Sports range (which also included the very useful return-to-centre spring unit) https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x928cx1&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"iconly":0} I actually have a couple of these.. I'll go and see how good they are for scooping!

I'll go and see how good they are for scooping! Thanks for that info. Not many available in the UK and then most dealers only have 1 or 2. I was thinking of using them for a vertical lift and then tip when they reach the top. I have one of the hockey return to centre spring unit in orange. Edited March 14, 20186 yr by Doug72
April 5, 20186 yr I thought that I may be useful to someone to share my recent discovery: a 3rd party replacement for pneumatic tubing. I needed different lengths and didn't want to cut up genuine parts. I bought the Black tubing just to test the quality and it is indistinguishable from LEGO tubing, it bends the same, kinks at the same angle, the colour is identical although had a bit of an odour before washing it in soapy water. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/2x4-Food-Grade-Silicone-Tube-Hose-Pipe-ID-2mm-OD-4mm-New-High-Quality/1000003854079.html?spm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.262.YZY9zN I also found grey tubing, the only listing for it at the correct size for LEGO (2mm ID x 4mm OD ) but I have not bought it as it's 10m https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Grey-Silicone-rubber-tube-inner-x-outer-dia-2x4-3x5-4x6-5x8-6x9-7x10-7x11-8x10/32834128498.html?spm=a2g0s.13010208.99999999.272.YZY9zN what are peoples opinion on 3rd party pneumatic tubing? I've seen people using clear and some yellow in builds.

April 5, 20186 yr Nice find! I have bought tubbing from this shop: http://www.blokbricks.com/contents/en-us/d2.html I cannot distinguish it from original TLG tubbing at all. In the end I still prefer tubbing from my old sets from early 90's, it is much better than recent tubbing - softer with better curve radius. I think that 3rd party tubbing is generally accepted just like strings - you need plenty of it and there is no dirrerence between lego tubbing and 3rd party one
April 5, 20186 yr I also bought a bunch from Blokbricks. Although black, white, grey and red are very good, blue is more like purple. When you are actually using them as pneumatic hoses, that's not an issue, but when they're in a blue MOC replacing soft axles the difference is very noticeable and quite annoying.
April 5, 20186 yr Hm...I thought that this topic is excludively for LEGO parts...there is probably something printed very small so I did not notice it

April 22, 20186 yr It also appears that cranks now appear in DBG in one of the new Jurassic World sets. I am not sure of the name, but there are stickers that say “Gyrosphere” on some of the parts. Inside the ball on either side of the seats there are DBG crank pieces.
April 22, 20186 yr No, it's LBG (or Medium Stone Grey ), at least judging from this pic and the inventory. Unless you're talking about a different part / set ?

Ok, thanks for the explanation. I do wonder why Bricklink and other sites use different names though, makes it all confusing to me.
