Hello,

I am currently unable to create flexible axles using lsynth and end piece LS40.
I was wondering if anyone has been able to achieve this.

Hi Matt,

  LS40.dat is not a hose constraint (axle constraint).  It is provided to you to
put ends on your flexible axles.  The second example you provide is the correct
one.  Simply add LS40.DAT on each end of the axle, and you have a complete
flexible axle.

This is the code that will not work with end part LS40 –

0 Untitled
0 Name: flex_axle.ldr
0 Author: MLCad
0 Unofficial Model
0 SYNTH BEGIN FLEXIBLE_AXLE 16
0 SYNTH SHOW
0 ROTATION CENTER 0 0 0 1 "Custom"
0 ROTATION CONFIG 0 0
1 0 -170 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 LS40.DAT
1 0 120 0 0 -1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 LS40.DAT
0 SYNTH END
0

But strangely enough, if I substitute the LS40 end part with LS00, it works –

0 Untitled
0 Name: flex_axle.ldr
0 Author: MLCad
0 Unofficial Model
0 SYNTH BEGIN FLEXIBLE_AXLE 16
0 SYNTH SHOW
0 ROTATION CENTER 0 0 0 1 "Custom"
0 ROTATION CONFIG 0 0
1 0 -170 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 LS00.DAT
1 0 120 0 0 -1 0 0 0 -1 0 0 0 1 LS00.DAT
0 SYNTH END
0

I am very new to lego CAD and would appreciate any help given.

Is there an easier way to generate flexible axles and hoses or is lysnth the
best option?

Regards,
Matt

(...) Thanks for your help Kevin, I've now got it working! I don't want to sound picky, but the axles pieces that have been created are just slightly larger in diameter than the LS40 part. Is this correct, or should the connected axle and end parts (...) (20 years ago, 5-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.cad.dev)
