  Re: Lubricating technic turntables
 
<snip> from using different types of yoyos and other things i have found that the best for inert lubricating is silicon lubricant, there are also some other lubes for nylon that i can't think of but i do know that they are out there. some vcr repair (...)

  Re: NQC for Palm
 
<snip> it's too bad that all of you just HAVE to use a palm OS device. someone a long time ago ported nqc to windowsce and it works fine, i'm able to do on the fly programming and uploading with a first generation device, which i'm actually unhappy (...)

  Re: I wish Lego made an "Anti-Backlash Gear"
 
(...) I know of 1 type of zero-lash/anti backlash geartrain. It's hard to put it in words but I'll try. My example assumes there are only 2 shafts but it can be applied to as many shafts as you need. In my example S1 represents our first shaft. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

One of the builds (for Mac MPW) targets 68K, but with slightly difference options than (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: I wish Lego made an "Anti-Backlash Gear"
 
(...) I was going to say this solution is easy, but then I tried it. There are only two shaft's in this example. As lego don't make don't make a 'double width gear' You'd have to use four to make it in lego. All you'd need is three normal 16 tooth (...)

  Re: I wish Lego made an "Anti-Backlash Gear"
 
(...) Explain 'Hmmm...' :-) I of course omitted the fact that my solution as described produces no mechanical advantage just a shaft going in the opposite direction. Of course, you can always replace the pair of gears on the second shaft with a pair (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
