Hello I have seen the Geneva wheel for a while now. A few LEGO MOCs have been created before, but I wanted to do my own... This mechanism is running flawless and at variable speed Here is a link to my Brickshelf folder: <http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=446003> I built 2 different wheels, the one quite simple but I can't attach much to it. The second one is a bit more complicated, but I can attach something to it. I want to develop a GBC using this mechanism... Might take a while... Let me know what you think! Jean-Marc

Very clever! I myself have been playing around with those quarter circle bricks, great to see what you did! You are right, the mechanism works well, both directions! Eric Sophie Legomaster Biomechanical Bricks
