People- What I meant by color and number is: what type of white are those hubs painted, and is it possible to get that specific paint in a model store (hence the number)? (19 years ago, 9-May-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The teeth won't match up as you say, but only one if the gears needs to be fixed - the other can be an idler, with its sole function being to pinch the worm gear, not raise the platform. Jennifer (19 years ago, 6-May-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) This is an interesting proposition - but I would be wary. I dont have a Lego worm gear to hand, but if the rear is a half turn out from the front - then the teeth may not match up. Also I think using the worm gears is a great idea -I would (...) (19 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The 'water' and especially the boat are quite heavy, so any slippable connections would not work. The weight would also cause problems with driving the string reliably. john (19 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) What if two gears were used, one on either side of the the worm, effectively pinching it between them? That should stop any flexing and prevent the teeth from slipping. Jennifer (19 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.technic)
