Posted April 22, 201410 yr "I never ever mixed up dark bluish gray with black when building from a Lego manual" "I have way too less black connection pins" "That Power Functions rechargeable battery is very priceworthy!" ..... Please continue

April 22, 201410 yr (To my kids) Sorry, I don't have that 15L beam you are looking for, in fact, I don't have any Technic parts in the basement; and I certainly do not have 8 brand new Unimog wheels Edited April 22, 201410 yr by JGW3000
April 22, 201410 yr Author I have more lego than I'll ever need ... Currently, when I buy a new set, I leave all the black and double blue connector pins sealed in their bags. For those parts I use the ones out of my collection. For many other parts, the quoted line is so true. Even if you think you certainly have enough of a certain part (liftarms, for example), one thinks of a new MOC and you just need that two extra beams in that specific lenght and/or angle. In the correct colour, none the less. Hehe, all the other ones are cool too. My brains are enjoying a little party of recognition.
April 22, 201410 yr "These new gears seems so strong, let's test some torque... ups" "Oh, I only need 8 connectors on THIS color, They could not be expensive in BL..." "I only spend a couple of hours sorting these 3 boxes of spare parts" "I know exactly how many black pins with friction I have" "I don't miss Technic Figs in Sets" "Hey... Black is a primary Color" (In TECHNIC ^^ )
April 22, 201410 yr I have never ordered a £100+ set just because I want the wheels AHAHAHAHAH hi there brother XD - the gearboxes i've built work amazingly well without making me swear all the time for some reason - i never forced pieces to avoid dismounting a part of the model when i need to change something...

April 22, 201410 yr My friends and family don't think I am a weirdo when I show them my Lego collection.
April 22, 201410 yr Lego never causes friction between my wife and I with how much space my collection takes up. I've never declared legos on personal financial statements as "significant assets"
April 22, 201410 yr I never get tired of putting my dad right. Plastic is great for mechanical parts. I really love how the power functions cables cant be replaced.
April 22, 201410 yr I never modify pieces to get new pieces when I need it while MOCing. I always have too many 3L blue pins.
April 22, 201410 yr "I have built PF Trial truck, tested it in rough terrain, and I haven't broken any U-joint." i've never used teeth to disassemble I've really done neither of these. I've built a couple of trial trucks, and have not broken a single U joint. And I've honestly never used my teeth to disassemble anything. "i'll never make the model in the manual - i will use this set for parts only" 8070 went right in my parts bin.
April 22, 201410 yr To the wife: "Honey, this 2000+ pieces Technic set was really cheap!" "I won't buy any sets or parts this month" Edited April 22, 201410 yr by EV3Noob
April 22, 201410 yr I Never wished for longer pneumatic rams/cylinders and a more precise control for pneumatic elements. It's really easy to address a linear actuator with a long and "curved" drivetrain.
April 22, 201410 yr "I will only purchase that parts I need for my new moc" "I can fit this mechanics in that challenging size in first attempt" "Darling, I dont have enough Tires and Rims on that Huge Box" "Black is a really fitting color" "I don't miss the grip/clutch of old pins with friction" "That pneumatic airtank really worth that price in Bricklink" but the best is... "Nah, the Flagship set of this year is not cool, I won't buy it"
April 22, 201410 yr Excactly, this flagship (loader) is not for me since I already have all those parts and PF-stuff and I'll get the bucket from BrickLink.
