Is 14 an Unlucky Number for Megaprims?

I've looked at over 10,000 box megaprims and I can't find a 14 x 16 x .5 size. I see lots of 15 x 16, 16 x 16, 17 x 16, 12 x 16. Megaprims with a 14 m. side seem to be fairly unusual. Why would 17 be more desirable than 14?

More to the point, does anyone have a 14 x 16 x .5 megaprim they'd be willing to share?

Thanks!

Go to the Builder's Brewery and pick up a copy of the SALT HUD. Tell it the dimensions of the megaprim you want, and it'll search for it.

It found a 16x14x.5 megaprim.

:( I thought you were going to say that megaprims with 14 in them vaporize - or better still, become flesh-eating monsters. Disappointed yet again. [SIGH]

That said, I second Milla's post: the SALT HUD is an indispensable tool for anyone using megaprims. The Builder's Brewery is a wonderful resource and well worth a visit, but you can also pick up the HUD free from XStreet: https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=712605

I like PrimSearch myself just drop it on the ground click it and you can use the inworld browser or out of world browser..click the search type in your size and it will give you yx
or you can get them in any combination..

i like it cause screen space is valuable and i didn't need to wear a hud..heck even my tools window gets in the way on some builds lol

it's copy and only like two prims so you can drop more than one down if you are working in a few areas..
i had an 8 story building i was making..just dropped one on each floor and if i needed something .just scrolled over it and click. ;)

PrimSearch is neat - thanks.

I am trying to rework a build and really just want to see if a batch of sizes are available. Doing this with the Salt HUD and if the size I search is available, it is automatically sent to me. The PrimSearch web site lets me just do a bunch of searches without receiving anything until I make my decisions.
