Why? These are genius

[@FearStrikerXD]

My favourite isn't on the internet, it's the one with the 90 degree grill thing on the back of 60172 (police car with a net). The studs fit into the square holes. I made the international space station using 384 of them.

[@dustinhunter6669]

Uhhh wut? Lol

[@FearStrikerXD]

Actually, you could classify this as the one where you use a plate and put it in the middle of two studs, but you only need one stud (but it has a similar effect) :D

[@dovahkiin4977]

It all fits into the square hole.

[@Nick-hm9rh]

@@dovahkiin4977 look at this triangle. Wich hole? Thats right the square hole

[@Deby_Bumblebee]

The ones who discovered all of that techniques are the Truly Lego Master Builders!!! Gotta try them

[@lnx0007]

3:46 why is this considered illegal? the technic pins and holes were clearly designed to the same size and spacing as the bricks' studs, seemingly for this exact building technique. There is no strain on the parts or bending when connecting in this manner.

[@Vexnatos]

LDD doesn't recognise it

[@Vexnatos]

you can attach a plate to the technic hole bricks using studs, but not directly for some reason

[@captainshays6191]

@@Vexnatos I literally built something in LDD using that technique yesterday. EDIT: LDD only sometimes recognizes the technique. It works with single-stud plates like 1x1s and jumpers, but doesn’t seem to work with standard plates 1x2 and bigger. The exact assembly shown in the video is not possible in LDD.

[@karlhendrikse]

I assume it's illegal because it results in an offset of half a stud: a bad situation to be in.

[@vvojciech1038]

Apparently a pin hole is placed on brick just slightly higher than a side studs on bricks. That is why it's not illegal to connect plates to bricks with pin holes but placing anything that connects with a brick but goes on top of a plate will shlightly stress it

If you ever make another one of these, you ought to cover the weird technique where if you get a wall made from enough 1x2 bricks, you can bend it and make a circle.

[@vincentproulx5527]

3:23 OR you can just attach the brick to the pin without the 1x1 stud.

[@VortexBricks]

That’ll make a boring 2x2

[@Mongrel698]

Great vid as always! Thanks Spit brix 👌👍

[@RB_Plays_YT]

I was waiting for this video

[@TXLAdventure]

3:40 that’s illegal?!!! I’ve been using that for years

[@noob-killer]

Yes. Since the holes are designed for technic pins they are slightly off-center. Thus using any kind of plate that isn't 1x1 is illegal cause it causes stress and eventually damage to the bricks/plates. And if there is a block hanging above then even the 1x1 is illegal cause the brick above pushes the plate down, damaging it since the hole isn't perfectly centered

[@luukielightning994]

6:15 I would use it as a bowl in a temple for sacrifises!

[@dyl_pickle16-mta48]

4:15 Why do these pieces break so easily? I keep all of my spare pieces in a bin with divided sections. I sort the pieces by function, and one section is for all of the pieces that are broken. The pile is mostly comprised of cracked torsos, battle droid arms, those horrible reddish brown pieces that snap apart like dry twigs, but more than any other are the hinge pieces shown above.

[@legofan-dt7nz]

Idk

[@chronicalvipergaming3593]

Idk bro...it's just one of those pieces i guess

[@nyahnyahson523]

My guess is that the hinges are super susceptible to twisting, since a hinge is inherently going to be weaker than the solid bricks of plastic around it.

[@cooperette1]

i know just WHY

[@elziemilum5880]

Not the reddish brown pieces! I Hate those ones.

[@user-ep8ns6hg4q]

I could swear older building kits utilized the Technic bricks with 1xX flat plates stapled to them, I know they still use that method using the transparent 1x circles for lights.

[@YCCCm7]

1x1 is okay. But on longer plates the studs aren't repeated at the same rate as the holes in the technic brick, meaning there's a slight desync that can strain the parts. That being said, Lego has 100% used techniques in their builds that later research reveals were actually damaging the parts long term. They then categorized them as illegal after finding out about this problem. Sometimes they've even modified select pieces (1x1 plates with clips are an example) to be able to meet desired functionality safely.

Im already amazed that there are names for each lego

[@jaytonobrien6325]

When someone says soming dealing with illegal lego building techniques. I just think back to this one time i saw a lego instruction manual for some ship in a bottle set. Where they had like a hundred and fithty-nine single round pieces that you just dump into the bottle before the last step.

[@thegameroof8048]

You could use the lego hand sun for a portrait made out of lego bricks

[@I.Fumblebee.I]

Wondering if you could use the hand wheel for sand wheels or if the hands are too loose and would fall off in the drag.

[@meggubravo8373]

3:26 the stud is redundant it would work with the stud In fact it's work better because there'd be no gap But at that point you might as well use a 2x2 unless you wanted it connected but different colors

[@99SuperKiller99]

Those were my thoughts exactly when he showed this. I'm guessing it has to be to include the created gap while remaining connected.

[@Thomas-mm8wg]

6:19 I think a part already exist for ut, but you could use it as a steering wheel on a ship

[@moose_boy]

My first thought with the cylinder one was "Lightsaber"

[@CorporateMarineDRG]

all of these are a result of lego keeping scale between different pieces of pieces

[@nikiward7284]

You can use to minifigure hands to actually attaching to gear pieces to make a type of gear

[@dankboi666]

The hands and the plate could be used for an eye of sauron build

[@gruntopolouski5919]

I’m wondering what is illegal about some of these methods… I was under the impression that “illegal” = putting pressure on a brick, like connecting 2 bricks (1x4 plates) using the center studs and forming a “scissor” shape. A good number of the confabulations in this video seem to be odd, fer shur, but not stressing a single brick. Does anyone know where there is an official list from LEGO which defines exactly what makes a join “illegal?

[@thegeckojo5803]

Illegal in the strictest sense? Perhaps not. Unconventional and perhaps should not exist? Most likely, yes.

[@Dovah_Slayer]

I think the original illegal was the stress on the pieces but now it's taken on the form of a synonym of cursed

[@Pandacalifornia]

What you’re describing with the scissor shape doesn’t sound like it stresses the pieces too much, it just doesn’t seem that practical in most cases.

[@louiseconrad6710]

btw you can make a pirate steering wheel for that lego hand wheel thingy

[@NiceIc3]

You can use the hand sun in brown, and use it for a water mil on the side of the house if your trying to build a mini house

[@legolover7148]

Good Job!

[@Maanga_juice_sid]

Who ever created this would have taken a bunch of pieces and put them together. And they became genius.

[@monkeymonkey7839]

[@F00TBALLG0AT]

Cool builds

[@delfox2.057]

0:54 Wait, is *this* illegal/cursed?! I do this all the time! 3:30 this too!

[@YCCCm7]

At 0:54 the issue is that the round pins actually have tapering on the ends of the pieces. They take up slightly more space than a stud in their natural state. Compressing them to fit only the space of a single stud will strain them over time. I actually found an old lego build I made when I was 12 about a month ago, and it did this, and the pins immediately snapped when I disassembled it. Oops.

[@noob-killer]

3:30 This one is illegal because it damages the plate. How? The holes are off-center since it's created for technic pins

[@poncikgamer2298]

Wow!

[@eliaspeter7689]

7:31 Perfect for a spaceship engine.

[@RosePieVA]

the one with the camera pieces, i dont see as illegal, it doesn't seem to stress the bricks or seem unsturdy.

[@nf9563]

[@CC--qn4gf]

I can't believe some of these are actually possible

[@javipachuflo]

Dis big brain 🤯

[@kentslocum]

Many of these building techniques are "illegal" because they over-stress the plastic and induce bending, warping, and cracking in the bricks. It isn't LEGO being mean--it's LEGO trying to make your bricks last longer. In my opinion, it's far more impressive to see what people can build when working under constraints (such as avoiding illegal techniques) than when they can do whatever they want without any concern for their bricks.
