  new sets again
 
hi i've got the catalog for 2nd half of year 2003 8455 if not as same as we've seen before that's what i found - not all pistons are new - the holes in new pistons are definitely round (not axle) (both are round) - valves are probably new but they (...)

  Re: Centrifugal clutch?
 
(...) Nah, it's more in the lines of actually having work to do. I almost only "Lugnet" from work since I rather not use my computer at home if I don't have to, eight hours per day at work is enough computing for me :) Also, since I mostly Lugnet (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

hi when talking about cylinders or pistons maybe 2 way piston would be nice to previously discussed (yes tobbe i should use this word :)) T shape "angle" connector i would add cross shaped definitely dividing by 3 is not too simple by nature of (...)

(...) I'm in no way a master of these units but here goes. (URL) at the picture found on the above URL; the top 2 x 2 stud area is the cable connection point. A standard 9V cable goes there and feeds current into the light inside. This is probably a (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)

  Re: what else could be done
 
(...) Why on earth do you want those? The only thing I like better is the fact they only use one tube per cylinder, but most times it's not a problem. I'd much rather have longer cylinders in the new style. Best regards, /Tobbe (URL) SPAM when (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Train crane MOC

  Re: what else could be done
 
(...) Also a good idea, like a soliniod valve. (...) You can use them to make 6 sided shapes. A lot of the hubs and pulleys have 6 holes so it makes sense to be consistent with this. Also, you can make a 6 sided shape rigid by making equal lateral (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.technic)

  Fiber Optics
 
I wonder if anyone could help explain to me how the Lego fiber optics work? And what you need to make them work. I do remember them from maybe 1995, but I bought a supercar and some other stuff, and just forgot about them until they were (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: 8448/8466 Gear Ratios
 
(...) No other ratios will work without reversing geartrain. Hoping to add working 6th forward gear tommorrow. Will make a 0.396:1 or 0.36:1 ratio. Hoping it is not too low to move 8448 easily. Otherwise I will add a 4 speed transfer case (like most (...) (22 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.general, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

  8448/8466 Gear Ratios
 
I have calculated the gear ratios for the 8448 and 8466 gearboxes and this is what I found: Reverse -2.5:1 First 1.66:1 Second 1.5:1 Third 1:1 Fourth 0.9:1 Fifth 0.6:1 I hope that someone could use this. If anyone has calculated these before and one (...) (22 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.technic)

Has anyone else noticed how Lego is now cleverly guiding innocent create'n'builders surely and slowly into being hardcore technic builders?

Hello, I would like to see: Packets or tubes that contain the correct lubricant for the pneumatic cylinders, pumps, and valves. A female towball pin to fit on an axle. A spool/slider valve for pneumatics. A gear perhaps in various sizes with a round (...) (22 years ago, 17-Feb-03, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.technic)
