  Re: 20-Wide model of a Dutch train
 
(...) I liked it so much I downloaded the whole brickshelf folder (using a handy program). I'm stating the obvious here, but you could always mate Lego with commercial bogies and track in the appropriate scale. Now that would be cool.

  20-Wide model of a Dutch train
 
well Dutch.... Ok, based on the French BB7200.... but it's the Dutch railways yellow version, oh yeah: and it has the crest of the city I grew up: Almelo. Don't know if 1876 is a real existing train number, but what the heck. Hello all you (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.trains, lugnet.modelteam) ! 
 
  Re: SSClagorpion
 
(...) Is *up* the same as "not down"? I was thinking it was, but that may not be the case. (...) This sounds like we can NOT do the table edge detection stuff, using it's feet. Imagine you're crawling around on your hands and knees, with your eyes (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion
 
(...) Actualy we need to sense when it is *up*. (...) As soon as you figure out that a foot is up, you can reverse directions. I'll have to study the state sequence, because there are two non-weight bearing pistons that control the feet, so it might (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Working Fountain on TCLTC layout (Pics)
 
(...) It actually pumps the water. A large part of the design problem was getting the system to pump an amount of water that wasn't too much and wasn't too little. I'd have to say that the final result was a triumph of trial and error:-) JOHN (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion
 
(...) Ok, we [plan to] have a sensor on the front foot, and can detect when that is down. So, no more sensors are required. So you said, the forward/backward must be changed while the feet are in the air. We've been thinking of having a touch sensor (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion
 
(...) It is my belief that sideways walking will require a third degree of articulation in the leg/hip structure. It will cause the legs to swing towards and away from the body. By replacing the forward/backward part of the leg sweep with the side (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: SSClagorpion
 
(...) Ok, so what's required for walking sideways? One switch (= single set of switches, all activated at once) to switch from forward/back/turn to side-to-side? I'm sure that comes to about 16 reverser switches, or something. :) I just happened to (...) (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Is his system actually pumping water through the pistons, or is he using air pressure from them to push water through tubes? (20 years ago, 19-Apr-04, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.town, lugnet.technic, FTX)
