SNIPE Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 Hi, I am looking for a part that has a hole for a pin joiner to do, the unimog wheel spindle and hub has one but it is blocked off by a regular hole, the technic panels have them but dont work for pin joiners but axle joiners, however they are too tight and jam too. I could take the insides out of a whote lego 24tooth clutch gear but I need to be able to attach it to the car and the gear has no way of doing this. Quote
DLuders Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 So, you want either a smooth or a to fit inside a Lego brick? I don't know of any such brick. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Sorry but I find these kind's of posts funny. the axle joiners will fit into this wheel. Part 4266 Wheel 20 x 30 Technic (4 studs D.) Edited July 13, 2012 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
SNIPE Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 I need a hole so it can exit out of the other side and not be too tight. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 Ah...... ok,back to the drawing board then. Quote
SNIPE Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) The reason for this is if I just used an axle and normal hole the axle would just bend and even snap so I decided to use something to support it and have the support go through a bigger hole, but there does not seem to be many bricks around. also note that I am supposed to be stacking springs over these many pin/axle connectors , the hole in the brick I'm looking for compresses these springs. These springs are very long compared to standard lego spring assemblies. Edited July 13, 2012 by SNIPE Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) What about joining some of these together to make it strong,then you can have your band's around it. Part 4185 Technic Wedge Belt Wheel (Pulley) Edited July 13, 2012 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Oh....erm.......mmm.......don't know..... You could mount your springs in between two set's of pulley wheels. Edited July 13, 2012 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
SNIPE Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) Wont the axle still bend, the springs are long so the axle needs to be long which makes it more prone to bending.

Alasdair Ryan Posted July 13, 2012 Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) What about something like this? Edited July 13, 2012 by Alasdair Ryan Quote
SNIPE Posted July 13, 2012 Author Posted July 13, 2012 (edited) For the gap between the round stopper plate and the round plate that pushes the spring down a normal axle on its own is not strong enough because it needs to be long. Basically this means that those round plates you showed are moving sothe spring is kept intact and on the other side is the plate that pushes on the spring. Edited July 13, 2012 by SNIPE Quote
