  Re: Grelnix
 
(...) Hi Kevin! I used a combination of techniques. I don't have many pictures of the joints per se. They are mostly hidden and covered. Although, these are much of the same techniques I have preached for years. I'll describe some here now: (...) (17 years ago, 31-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

  4-Wheel Drive, 4-Wheel Steering PF Vehicle
 
A few days ago I came across an interesting and compact design for a pendular suspension (thanks to TechnicBRICKs for highlighting this design).

  Re: Individual Power-Functions elements now available
 
(...) This shape also enforce a PF rule: power source is always available on top of PF connector, while power input is always done from bottom of connector (similarly to mains power distribution sockets/plugs). Philo (17 years ago, 27-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Individual Power-Functions elements now available
 
(...) I thought it might work like that, you can't see the top of the half 9v connector in the picture of course. I guess it's cheaper, one product/two functions. (17 years ago, 27-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Re: Individual Power-Functions elements now available
 
(...) Actually it works as a PF extension wire AND as a PF to old 9V converter. One end is PF on top and bottom, the other is PF on top, 9V on bottom. This allows to connect a PF motor on a RCX (not recommended for XL motor since it draws a lot of (...) (17 years ago, 27-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic)

  Re: Individual Power-Functions elements now available
 
(...) Well the title says "Power Functions Extension Wire", but the description says "Allows you to connect your LEGO 9v electric systems to the new Power Functions". With the pic indicating that as well, I'd guess that's what it is, the title could (...) (17 years ago, 27-Dec-07, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
