LEGO: Waterslide
May 12, 2008

This MOC came about because I had frustratingly few of these 1x4 offset bricks for a previous project, so I placed an order on Bricklink for more than I could ever need. Stacked them all together for storage, and found I could give them an interesting bend.

I've never seen this used as a building technique, so I thought I'd give it a shot with a Lego Waterslide.

And the individual 1x4 offset bricks (I got the name from Peeron, but there's gotta be another way to identify them) look like this:
