(...) By using 3 of the 24-tooth gears set up into a triangle, you can set the angles at whatever multiple of 15 degrees you want. If you use the older gears, you get a direct connect to 4 peg-holes aligned for standard Technic building on one side (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Couldn't you use an equilateral triangle to construct a 120-degree angle? Like the top picture that Thomas posted, but either Technic beam extends two holes past the point where the two beams pivot. Then a simple 3-hole 1/2-wide connector (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) If you can't use the three spoked plate, I would go for one of the wheels. How about the small pulley? It is probably the smallest circular part you can find with six holes, with a 3 unit diameter and 1/2 unit thickness. Fredrik (25 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)
