  Mid Ohio LEGO Fest '99?
 
Talking with some friends, we thought it would be a good idea to rent out a community center or a church for part of a weekend & do a LEGO Fest, where people would display their own creations, allow us to all meet up, but more importantly to (...)

  Re: LDLite and memory (or lack thereof)

  [Part] Tile(?) 2X2 Octagonal w/ Clip  [DAT]
 
This part comes from the 6463 Lunar Rover set. It looks like something which could have a number of uses, such as "feet" for landing gear. Oddly, it doesn't have a part number on it (odd for a part this big). This is another one of those "is it a (...) (26 years ago, 29-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad.dat)

  Re: New Page
 
(...) Normally I don't criticise other's web pages, but this time I'll make an exception. My first impression: The page looks great, but none of it belongs to Sam Edwards.

  Re: Pyramids
 
For any of you interested, here's how I came up with the slopes formula: Layer 1 and 2 have no 2x2 slopes, they start at layer 3. Layer 3 has 4, layer 4 has 8, 5 has 12, etc. (add 4 to each layer). This gives the series: sum(0,0,4,8,12, ... (...) (26 years ago, 29-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Variations on the "ADDER SUBTRACTOR" ("differtrans" ?)
 
Today, I played around with my dad's design on the differtrans thats featured on my site ( (URL) ). He managed to put the motors (almost) directly on top of the smaller geared side of each differential. Its the most compact design we have made so (...)

  Gear Designs
 
Hi, Just started reading this group and the info so far has been great. I was wondering if anyone can recommend any books on gears and gear train designs. Thanks much, regards (26 years ago, 29-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  What's the flywheel for?
 
I remember reading that the 5225 motors that come with RIS are internally geared and include a flywheel. I understand the internal gearing, but what's the flywheel for? Thanks, Jonathan -- Did you check the web site first?: (URL) (26 years ago, 29-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Fun with hoses continued
 
Terry, I haven't seen any hose ends from you. Maybe you're waiting until I publish the spreadsheet to do them yourself. I'll probably continue testing until the middle of next week, then if I continue to get good results I'll publish the spreadsheet (...) (26 years ago, 29-Jan-99, to lugnet.cad)

Greetings-- I'm not into space (at least the non-classic space), so when I found myself with some unwanted space sets I decided to get rid of them.
