     (...) This is one of my pet peeves, seeing gears supporting the weight of the robot on a rack.

          Re: Be ashamed... —Calum Tsang
      (...) You all should be praising Bruce for getting started early, not how he's using gears as weight bearing elements. (...) Apparently spelling "consent" right is harsh too. Calum (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

         Re: Be ashamed... —Derek Raycraft
      (...) Ya I don't see any problem with this. It's a very low friction solution. Now I wouldn't do this with 8 toothed gears, but with 40 it's quite reasonable. Derek (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
    
         Re: Be ashamed... —Larry Pieniazek
      (...) John Gerlach built a rolling lift bridge that uses (40 tooth) gears as the axles, no less. It had a huge moment as it was several track sections long. He did it that way because of axle shearing... I would worry more about the axles breaking (...) (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

          Re: Picture from Bruce was Re: Be ashamed... —Chris Magno
       (...) yes. :/ they are evil and vile. they chew the wire, and eat the rice from the rice game. I've told Bruce time and again that the solution to many of his problems is to get rid of the cats. I think he's up to 12 cats now. Chris (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
     
          Re: Picture from Bruce was Re: Be ashamed... —Bruce Sheridan
       (...) You know Chris, when I was talking with Kate at one of our previous events, she said almost the same things about you. What a coincidence. For the record I have two cats, who do indeed love rice and wire. Bruce (21 years ago, 30-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

         Re: Picture from Bruce was Re: Be ashamed... —Rob Stehlik
     (...) LOL! I'm not at all worried about the gears breaking (as Lar++ suggested) but its just not 'right'. Its not mechanically 'nice'. Iain would understand.
