(...) I think that one could make a brick-based body for an 8448-sized car -- there are many who have done so and put them on the web and some of them look great. But the vast number of parts needed makes such a vehicle more or less unplayable. (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Jennifer, In light of the recent thread on modifying parts in lugnet.build, I think you had better come clean and tell us which part you modified, why you modified it, and how you modified it. The first step in getting beyond the problem is (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Thanks Tobbe - I had actually thought of that, and I was a cat's whisker away from doing so, despite the warnings from another lugnetter that the structure of the 8 tooth gear may be too weak to handle being "rebored", but fortunately I (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) The 4.5V one was pathetic. I tried to power the 8860 with it, without the benefit of the external gear reduction box specified in the instructions, and it required so much gearing down that it moved abysmally slowly. However, I discovered that (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I remember that too, and remember thinking it looked pretty dodgy. I tried to make a similar type of body for the 8860 at the time, which looked equally dodgy. To be honest, I think the only really viable bodywork for those cars is the type on (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)

I was working on transmission ideas, and I came up with a cute planetary. It can produce several different types of output, and it is typically used in transmissions. My implementation is compact, and doesn't use too many parts. I'm not sure that it (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.technic)
