<p>I have the following setup:</p>

<p><a href="https://i.sstatic.net/muIch.jpg" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/muIch.jpg" alt="liftarm and module"></a></p>

<p>How can I connect the liftarm to the stacked bricks? The holes have different distances, so I can't just use black pins. Any suggestions?</p>
