(URL) done. Twice now. Though to be said, not nearly as great as the plan we have, but if this guy can assemble 5 'pieces', then we have got to come up with somethign bigger... Dave K (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) I'm going to go cry. :( Seriously though, these other assembly projects are incredible, but all have one major flaw (in my eyes): They're slow. I'm expecting if we pull this off, we'll have a cadence of a few seconds per car; maybe 10 or so, (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

(...) When I saw (URL) battery tester> I instantly was curious how they'd be measuring voltage. I choked on my water when I saw what they did; that's truly brilliant.

(...) Correct me if I'm wrong, but the cadence will be set by the slowest assembly cell, correct? So if your goal is a a fast cadence, you need *every* cell to meet at least that minimum requirement. Or, since you are using train track, with (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

(...) That's right! We have to agree that everyone will try and meet some maximum time. No worm gears allowed! :) (...) Well, we could, but that would get pretty complicated in a hurry, I think. But it's not unlike the Montrac system - there are (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

(...) Yes, this is correct. The slowest station on the line will be the limiting factor in the production rate. That said, I don't think we need to "one up" anything, this is purely for fun. We've never done a large group collaborative project other (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, FTX)

(...) While I'm not part of the rtltoronto clan, from the things I've seen you guys do, there is a lot of talent up there. If you want a suggestion for a 'project', how about the following: A pick and place system that can pull any variety of bricks (...) (18 years ago, 19-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) That was pretty much the exact idea that I presented to Kjeld when I went on the Inside Tour. As Calum said though, reliability would be the downfall-as well as speed. Its too bad bricks are not magnetic, then could use a magnetic crane. I was (...) (18 years ago, 20-Jan-07, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
