Hey, Check out my page www.lcs.net/users/oglewood/
Go under "lego Ideas" and click on the two speed transmission. Also, I have
tried it with four speeds (R-1-2-3) but it gets too big after that. Hope
that helps!

| This is another nice piece of work. I did not understand it until I downloaded the Dat file and opened it. Very nice! This is another useable design. Thanks for posting it. A top view would be really cool on your website. -- Bob Fay (...) (24 years ago, 21-Sep-00, to lugnet.technic)
