  Re: LEGO Knitting Machine
 
Greetings, Thank you all for the compliments! There were a few questions posted and I'll try to answer them all here rather than individually. This machine is not directly modeled after a similar device. However, I learned a great deal about (...) (19 years ago, 12-Jan-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Well done Tom. Great piece of work! Perhaps soon you will be able to wear the proceeds :-) I remember seeing a knitting machine where a carriage travelled about a metre back and forth. Is it possible to transfer the mechanism to a larger frame (...) (19 years ago, 11-Jan-06, to lugnet.technic)

It looks remarkably simplistic yet elegant. I do have one very minor problem, however, with your javascript slideshow thingy. It tends to advance two frames, instead of one, could you please add conventional links like in a folder on brickshelf or (...) (19 years ago, 11-Jan-06, to lugnet.technic)

(...) <snip> (...) Marvellous. Did you base it on a similarly functioning machine? I haven't seen anything nearly as elegant in lego building before, and I am really glad I peeked outside the robotics newsgroups today! (19 years ago, 11-Jan-06, to lugnet.technic)

  Where should the 100 NXT testers' findings be shown?
 
Is it likely that all 100 of the people chosen for early NXT testing will know of LUGNET and post their findings here? Should LEGO set up a forum on legofan.org or mindstorms.com? How about nxtbot.com? It would be nice to have a single place to get (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, lugnet.dear-lego, FTX)  
 
  Re: Are We Headed to a New Wiring System? For Mindstorms the answer is: YES!
 
Hi Adrian, the new mindstorms is using standard plugs as known from telephone systems. At least this is what the "experts" said in Frechen yesterday. I myself have no deeper knowledge in mindstrorms and I cannot guarantee what a telephone cable (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.technic)
