‘Cause a wall without studs has nowhere to attach gyproc. Unless it is a concrete or block wall, I guess. But this is a block with studs so it’s good.
^President Trump I mean President Business' favourite piece XD
A very interesting piece. Usually used for the cover for the back of a tray of a tip truck. Very useful for that too.
I wonder what else it's been used for?

If you look at the sets it's been used in, it can actually be quite a useful element.
@MeisterDad:
I’ve never run across the term “gyproc” before. I’m guessing it’s what we’d call drywall (because it goes on dry, unlike plaster), or less commonly either gypsum board or sheet rock.
A few of these came with the USC Sandcralwer to build a few crates. Really fun part!

A good wall joke is something everyone can get behind!
@PurpleDave Yes. All those terms are synonymous.
This is such a cool element. My first time seeing it was in green in one of the garbage truck sets. I want it!

Because stacking hundreds upon hundreds of 3005s can get boring easily
The fantastic Sand-crawler 75059 is the most famous use of this piece.
I first saw this in the gold mine 4204 as a container above the conveyor belt, but usually used as the back of a truck cab or truck trailer to attach plates on sideways. If this was available in transparent colours, we would see plenty of space ship mocs that use this in a clever way.
This is either the most useful piece ever or the most pointless piece ever.

Well, it’s neither a cheese wedge, nor one of those jump stands that eats minifig feet. I’m pretty sure it falls somewhere in between, since I’ve neither ordered them by he hundreds, not sworn off ever using them for anything.
I like odd pieces like this.
