<p>To add to TheBrickBlogger's suggestions, F@bz has another spaceship that I believe is worth mentioning: <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/fabz71/21111423905/" rel="noreferrer">https://www.flickr.com/photos/fabz71/21111423905/</a></p>

<p>I recall seeing an awesome dinosaur made almost entirely out of Brick Separators on Flickr a while back (and I believe it was called a Separatosaurus) but all my searches have been futile so far. That said, google "Brick Separator MOC" and you can see many designs.</p>

<p>One thing I've been using some of my brick separators for is in the construction of wedges for robotics and competition builds. The semi-sharp prying edge is sharper than most parts, and the angle is decent enough for a low wedge.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/xmhRM.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/xmhRM.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>

<p>They have no strong connectors of their own, but the height of the brick edge is 2 plates tall, meaning it will fit well between 2 Technic bricks, with Technic pieces holding them together.</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/k46Hy.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/k46Hy.jpg" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>

<p>With a design like this, you can easily connect it to a Technic beam, with it freely swinging down to make ground contact.</p>

<p>I use them to get stubborn batteries out of remotes, to open stiff ports on device cases, and to get under tabs on soda cans....I want one on a keychain!</p>
