December 30, 20195 yr I always get a mini heart attack when (even in the instructions) I have to push an axle on a blind hole all the way. In my mocs I took the habit to use the 4-5-8L with stop and a red bush to indicate they are sub-model connection points which could be separated easily to store the moc in a box or to separate a section to reach gearboxes or possible weak points. (I know I shouldn't leave weak points)
December 31, 20195 yr Definetley dont push a 1x1 round tile in each end of a 3L clutch ring. I had to bend some tweezers to curl round the insides through the slot in the center of the clutch ring, in order to push one of the tiles out.

Good luck extracting the 5L axles  On 12/30/2019 at 9:33 AM, Jurss said: With tip of this, You could get that axle out. That's (maybe) there are those holes on the sides also on those axle-pin connectors.  On 12/30/2019 at 9:52 AM, come2me said: Even with a 16 or 32 stud length axle ? I posted way back in this thread a solution: Â
January 4, 20205 yr I had put a normal 4L axle in a 5x7 frame because I already used my few 4L w/stop I had. So drilled and screw and out.
February 9, 20205 yr Presenting, on this forum, today only, the Kobayashi Maru of Technic Disassembly:
February 9, 20205 yr 22 minutes ago, Gimmick said: Hmm what am I missing? The axles can be removed, they are still one stud out. I think he means this but using 2L axles, which can still be removed using tweezers anyhow, you use tweezers much in the same way that you would tention a lock if lockpicking except the tweezeers also levers the axle out. Or push it out again using tweezers sicne you can see the axle hole a bit next to the yellow connector. Edited February 9, 20205 yr by SNIPE
February 9, 20205 yr Got 'em out by using a tweezer and sneaking in behind the axles to shove them out. Ridiculous. At least with the turntable in 42049, you could use the exhaust pipe part to dislodge the pins...Â
March 10, 20205 yr Here is some old-school impossibility from the 80s. Yes, it looks exactly the same from the other side. Here it's not only impossible to take it apart. It's also impossible to assemble in the first place.

Not being at home to test this with my limited studful pieces is the key to this one perhaps that the 4x1 bricks and 6x1 bricks act as a parallelogram allowing you to pop the 6x1 off the plates one stud at a time?
March 10, 20205 yr That'd move the 6x1's closer together, not further apart. I'd bet at one of the 4x1's actually being 2 2x1's.
March 10, 20205 yr Just now, Pdaitabird said: Maybe the plates are actually 2x2s pushed together to look like 4x2s? 3 + 1 alternated would do the trick for the photo..Â

It's also possible the pins are not full pins, but half pins. In that case the 6x1 beams would barely be kept in place and easily pulled out. EDIT: Yup, that can definitely be assembled. And is tricky to pull apart, because the stud side has a better friction lock than the pin side. Edited March 10, 20205 yr by pleegwat

March 10, 20205 yr So not Technic, but does fall under the impossible situations. Â Happened accidently, as the bricks where muddled in a box and general sorting obviously forced them together like this ;-) It's a one way situation....

Isn't possible to disassemble the steering wheel parts?Â
March 11, 20205 yr Also steering wheel can be bended, and then pushed out. Maybe it will not evene brake.
March 11, 20205 yr I have pulled a steering wheel off one of these once, it didnt break it. surley if it got pushed in by accident in the parts bin it can get pulled back out
March 11, 20205 yr You can put a 24t gear inside one of these, but only if you do so before you clip it together... Edited March 11, 20205 yr by amorti
