(...) well (...) "useless throwbot arms" That's exactly what Dave was saying not to do. Why destroy a piece when you can work around it? I didn't have to chop off any pieces from my Bionicle ball-joint arms; I incorporated them into the design. (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) I appreciate the nod, but I used absolutely no Buy-onicle parts whatsoever in my latest mecha. I used the ball and socket bits from C-3P0, and I used two ball bits that I chopped off the end of those useless throwbot arms. (Egad!) In a related (...)

(...) I think this is the ideal ratio, probably similar to the 1:5 gearing I used by using an 8 tooth onto 40 tooth gear which coincidentally fits into the same space as your pulleys. I found that using gears instead of pulleys made the compressor (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think so too! I think it is generally better to use the ungeared motor for applications where you need a quickly spinning thingey. For the small compressor, I usually gear the ungeared motor down using a rubber band and the large pulley, and (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Excellent, we need some real science in this stuff for sure :-) My hunch is still that when geared down to the same rpm the ungeared motors deliver the greater torque, although admittedly I have never done a proper test to establish this. As (...) (23 years ago, 20-Aug-01, to lugnet.technic)
