Pacbell has some kind of intermittent problem with forwarding e-mail
accounts like
mine.  Sorry you got a bounce.

I'm aware of the throwbot worm assemblies, but unfortunately, I need the
yellow
7x2x4 worm box.

I guess I'll be buying some tread trackers from LSAHS.

Thanks!

I just tried to send this reply directly to

pavogel@pacbell.net

and my message is returned as undeliverable. Is this
some kind of "special" email address?

So here is my answer, to the more general audience,
please forgive;

The two odd pieces, in some of the throwbot/slizer sets, which have a
half gear quadrant on one end fit together to form a worm housing which
can take either 24 or 40 teeth gears. If you can live with the odd shape
they are great. You can also nest them providing a nicely geared
down "elbow" joint.

Hi,

Does anyone know of any inexpensive technic sets (preferably widely
available) that contain
the worm gear box, like the two that are contained in the exploration • mars
set?

Thanks!
-Peter
