| | | That sounds familiar. When I think up a new model, I invariably have that one critical piece that requires modification. Without the piece, the model just wouldn't work. I wouldn't dare touch my 40t gears either. It would be different if I had 100 (...) (24 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

| | | | (...) It's a good point and a good idea, but even if I did buy a gear especially I still wouldn't want to modify it. I'd sooner find a way to work round the problem.

| | | | | | Or for that matter, why not have the axle hole of the gear be the same shape and size as an 8t gear? This would be similar to how the center of the large turntable accepts a 24t gear. Use a bushing if you want it to spin independently of the axle, (...) (24 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
