 | | A funny thing happened on the way to Ta-Koro

|
Hello all, Today in Matanui I've managed to make the brige operating machine of Ta-Koro invisable. After I've asked all four questions to Jala, I wend on to the engine room, clicked on the machine and woosh, gone it was. Still huffing and puffing (...)

(...) Among my myriad talents I'm also an occasional scratch builder. I've recently made a circular housing by wrapping a flexible strip of plasticard around a circular former secured by an elastic band and then throwing it into a sink full of (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

With all this talk of pneumatics going on, I feel I must inform you that all my current and pending creations hardly use pneumatics at all, I've binned them in favour of something more suited to my needs. I'd love to tell you but you'll have to wait (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.dacta)

(...) Sure - I made a rather ugly version of it including limit switch for my skid steer loader model. There is a picture here; I don't actually think many modifications other than replacing the small and large pully with 8 and 40 tooth gears were (...)

(...) When I actually got round to implement my 'bodge' I managed to do it so well it doesn't qualify as a bodge at all! It's now a 'clever implementation of standard parts to overcome a design limitation' :-) Steve (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

| | looking for inventories of 8064 & 9v power pack

I am looking for an inventory of the 8064 electric universal set and also the 9v power pack (87xx I think) that has the old non geared motor. Basicly I am looking for sets that use this motor that I have all (mabie in different colors...) of the (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.db.inv)

(...) I don't know how or why but I don't seem to have come across it. I guess I could try to build one but it'll help if you could give me a link or reference to it. (...) Well, I can have a go at it. But really, with this pressure sensor thing, (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.dacta)

(...) Nice work as ever! One type of pump I've not seen you test yet is a varation of Michael Powell's using an 8 tooth gear onto 40 tooth gear reduction rather than the belt drive, as this seems to improve performance significantly. How about a (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build, lugnet.dacta)

(...) More or less, but I think "kludge" carries more negative connotations than "bodge"; a bodge is generally thought of as a clever workaround (although still a workaround), whereas "kludge" seems to imply an ugly or inelegant solution that will (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) How about a homebrew one? I believe it is possible to get fairly thick "plastic card" which can be heated in the oven and moulded - I think this is a technique used by those who scratch build scale models of various types. It won't be pure but (...) (26 years ago, 10-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
