I was hoping you had done that : ) Very Slick ! I'm confused by your pics, though. Why are two of the four axles for the planet gears fixed to the carrier such that they can't rotate ? -Xanthra47 PS. You're gonna sell these, right ? I'll take at (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.technic)

I've occasionally wished for a 7x7, 56-tooth gear (same size as the outside of the large turntable). I know others have taken turntables apart to use them as gears (I think I saw this usage in a clock mechanism). In fact, I'd buy several (say 10 or (...) (23 years ago, 2-Apr-02, to lugnet.technic)

A quick hack might be to just glue the exisiting plate parts back to back. That gets you a two-plate stud reverser. The other route is to eliminate the ridge at the bottom of the two plates before you glue them together. I THINK this leaves enough (...) (23 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.technic)
