(...) take a year! It looks awesome! Why is it that us lugnetters are discovering sets later than before?

  Re: What's the difference?
 
Hello All, Nice and correct description, Luis. A range changer would have a ratio of 1:4 in this example. (16z/16z and 32z/8z) A Splitter would have a ratio of 1: 1.25. (16z/16z and 16z/12z) Hmm, these ratios are a little bit hard to build though... (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) Mechanically, I would think of the splitter as an additional gearbox. Using the same example Maico gave, you have a 4-speed plus reverse gearbox. The splitter would be simply an additional 2-speed gearbox. Suppose the ratios in the 4-speed (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) A closer look at the upper right pic reveals that the combine harvester pretty much has all the same functions as the last "official" combine harvester model, 8862's alternate model. It DOES look better than 8862's, though. (18 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.technic)

(...) That machine is ingenious. I like the way he has his RCX bricks communicating by traveling along with the assembly line. I also like the frame he made to hold the wheels while the body was pushed onto them. Brilliant. (...) This reply is (...)

  Re: What's the difference?
 
(...) Yes, and keep in mind that the advantage with an 18speed transmission that I described in my last post,is that you could go through your low gears without splitting them, flick into high range and split whichever gears you want...gives you (...) (18 years ago, 23-Dec-06, to lugnet.technic)
