| | DNA Model Using Technic Parts?
|
|
Does anyone have any good ideas for constructing a model of DNA? I'm looking for construction ideas to create a "functional" model. It is preferable that the model can be manipulated from a ladder shape to the normal helical DNA shape (i.e. (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.build)

OK, not rocket science, but here it is: (URL) folder shows the motor unit (low-speed), and the winder tool, which is the reason I built it! But there are probably a million & one other uses for it... Also a teaser shot of how I use it on my new (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic)

The problem I see is that you don't have anything that is regulating the outtake from the motor so you may burn of the thin threads inside. (...) (22 years ago, 21-May-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

(...) I don't think there's any physical size limit, but I've had problems in the past trying to upload big .zip files (>5meg) - it timed out or something. So as long as your uploads are in smallish chunks (I generally limit mine to about 3meg at a (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) One other thought here (and I'm not sure how "good" it is for the motors and I know that efficiency is not the best) is that you will note if you connect two motors together with the typical electrical connection wire (with no RCX in the (...)

(...) Hey there, Todd! v3.0 might be the best redesign of a MOC I've seen in some time, though I've got the same problem as Chris-fuzzypicitis. I love the inclusion of the Bohrok parts into this design, espacially the torso parts. It adds a level of (...) (22 years ago, 19-May-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) The main problem comes from the heat generated. This isn't a problem, unless you're driving motors fairly constantly with your RCX, but can eventually cause the diodes to break down. Of course, when one half of the rectifier goes, you can (...) (22 years ago, 19-May-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'd be a little surprised at a bridge rectifier which couldn't accept DC.
