  Re: Please help me identify this brick!
 
(...) (URL) a bit early for Mindstorms. I've only got a passing familiarity with the 4.5v system, but I believe that any parts that feature that type of 3-prong socket are designed for 4.5v power. All Mindstorms parts use either the 2x2x2/3 electric (...) (15 years ago, 19-Jan-10, to lugnet.technic)
 
  Please help me identify this brick!
 
Hi, I've got a black 3x2 block in my large mixed box of Technic, but I'm not sure what it does! The block has a power cable socket in the top, and a smooth axle hole through it, as well as a smaller hole on one side. I've looked through the various (...)

(URL) Hi folks Last fall we had the swine flu outbreak - it spread here too, of course, and I fell ill too. While my symptoms remained vague, I was in bed for a week. And one week in bed tends to be kind of boring. So I took my brick boxes onto a (...) (15 years ago, 17-Jan-10, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.cad, FTX)  
 
  Re: Volunteers to build and test twin stick transmission?
 
(...) More pictures and LDraw file are now available. (URL) (15 years ago, 11-Jan-10, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Non-standard uses for parts
 
(...) A corollary to this (that I discovered yesterday - apologies if this is already well known) is that you can use a bushing to lock a driving ring to the axle - the same notches that allow the bushing to fit between four studs will act as the (...)

  Re: Volunteers to build and test twin stick transmission?
 
(...) Hi Ari, I'd love to build it. No lack of necessary parts here. Could you post (or send me) a copy of the LDraw file you took that screenshot from? Never mind if it's incomplete. It's just easier to build if I can see it from different angles. (...) (15 years ago, 7-Jan-10, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Volunteers to build and test twin stick transmission?
 
Hi, here is an idea to build a good old fashioned twin stick truck transmission. I don't have enough synchro parts so I can't build this myself. Is there any volunteers to build and test it? :) (URL) Schematics> (URL) Twin Stick 5x4> More accurate (...) (15 years ago, 7-Jan-10, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: Motorized sausage
 
(...) Very nice! There have been many prototype engines designed using similar techniques in the past, there's a page about them (URL). ROSCO (15 years ago, 30-Dec-09, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Motorized sausage
 
OK, here comes another one! (2 URLs) This has a new (?) method of locomotion - it rolls along just by changing its shape. The wheels are fixed to the body and do not rotate. In principle you could enclose the whole thing in a plastic bag and it (...) (15 years ago, 30-Dec-09, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX)
 
  Re: Automatic synchro drive
 
I guess it's also possible that not all friction pins are alike (might be interesting to test this...) (...) (15 years ago, 30-Dec-09, to lugnet.technic)
