syclone Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Good day everybody ! Just found these wheels - http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=64712&idColor=11#T=S&C=11&O={"color":11,"ii":1} and discovered that they can act as gears! Quote
JJ2 Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Good idea I discovered this too when I was messing around with them. I also figured out that they are almost impossible to brace so the teeth dont skip Quote
dr_spock Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Nice idea. I have a bunch of them from Power Miner sets a few years ago. Quote
syclone Posted August 5, 2015 Author Posted August 5, 2015 (edited) You need to make non-standard space between them , something like this: 7 and 1/4 studs , maybe 1/3 Edited August 5, 2015 by LXF Quote
Chr.Maglekaer Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Why do not you use the standard (or semi standard) and puts some driving 16 tooth gears from underneath? That's how LEGO did with the Powers Miners set Quote

That's how LEGO did with the Powers Miners set I wrote this topic because I discovered that wheels can be used as gears and as a GBC part Quote
Technic Fan Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 Neat idea. I like to build GBC modules and can see their potential for use in a module. I have several of these parts and will have to experiment with them. Thanks for sharing. Quote
Technic Jim Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 I have a bunch of them from Power Miner sets a few years ago. Me too. I wish lego would bring back power miners because they were really nice sets. Quote
