  Re: Stability of cars/rails?
 
(...) wow, that's getting complicated. how about a 12v motor, at the center, with a platform built onto it. you get stability (by removing the bogey aspect), and simplicity. if need be, i can post a mockup, but somehow i don't see this as a problem (...)

  Re: Stability of cars/rails?
 
(...) So you want to mount a camera on a flatbed and put it on a circle? If so you might want to make an arm that goes into the center, and put some weight on it and a single wheel or even one of those boat "glider pads" round 2*2 under it (as in (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: Stability of cars/rails?
 
(...) There is also one thing I forgot to mention when I made the original post...I'm not doing realtime filming. I'm doing stop-motion. Therefore the need for a wobbleless system is even greater. Also, to make it harder, I cannot trigger the camera (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: DD45m prototype CAD
 
Simple response: Looks good. I'd like closer looks at those CAD files (some detail can't be made out). -Tom (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)
 
  DD45m prototype CAD
 
Just wanting a simple responce on my DD45m prototype CAD's I'm starting work in the morning on the real one... (real as in Lego) (URL) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)  
 
  Re: Stability of cars/rails?
 
If you took the monorail and ran it at 4.5 volts (to slow it down), you might get a very wobble free ride..... but I haven't tested it. -Tom (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Blain's Farm & Fleet 26% off Lego
 
Enough trash talking. William, Lar, you have some very nice tractors, and I'm sure all the kids at your shows will have lots of fun mishandling them. You've got yours designed for maximum detail, the ERTL models are more about getting the shape with (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Blain's Farm & Fleet 26% off Lego
 
(...) Well I wish you'd give it another thought, because if you don't bring it out soon, I'm going to have to crib from it, mine (MTW-5001) are a lot smaller! I like it a lot and I think it's worth 50 easy. Your tractor rocks... and theirs... well, (...) (21 years ago, 13-Oct-03, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.town, lugnet.trains)  
 
  Re: MOC: Schnabel car
 
Well, if you are going to do it, you might as well do it LARGE! I would imagine even the full scale units have certain radii curves they can't negotiate. This is just another one of those reasons we need different radii curves from TLC!!! The 12 (...) (21 years ago, 12-Oct-03, to lugnet.trains)
