# Elevator Block Mounting

The new Tube Plug hole pattern is designed to enable simple customization and streamline assembly when used with compatible accessories, such as the new WCP Elevator Blocks. The following sections demonstrate how these components can be combined to create simple, robust robot superstructures.

## Basic Corner Mounting

The Tube Plugs can be used to create a clean and robust corner connection for an elevator. This can be done in one of two ways: by installing a bolt through the Elevator Block and into the Tube Plug, or by drilling out the Tube Plug’s #10-32 tapped holes and using the Elevator Block’s built-in Nut Pocket for fastening. Both methods are shown below.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If the Nut Pocket feature is going to be used, the nut must be inserted into the designated pocket before the dowel pins are installed.

## Advanced Corner Mounting

{% hint style="warning" %}
When mounting a WCP Tube Plug to the top of the Corner Bearing Block, the #10-32 tapped holes on the Tube Plugs **must** be drilled out.&#x20;

The bolts are intended to be installed through the Tube Plug and thread into the Bearing Block.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.wcproducts.com/welcome/system-and-structure/tube-plugs/applications/elevator-block-mounting.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
