    Hmm peeron says they were available in 1972

    Technic Axle 4L I believe that was around at least in the 1960's, it was a lego system set but it has a black 4L axle. I saw it on peeron.com trying to find it again...

    The one I made just had plastic 2x2 thin beams , they were moved a tiny bit by the cams but didn't do anything. What do the valves actually do here?
  4. SNIPE
    Cool!, I'm thinking of making a really small one to put in a smallish MOC. It wont have the fake valves/sliders or camshaft to save space though but will have a gearbox and differential connected. I made a V2 with the large cylinders but didn't modify any T connectors , switches, cylinders.

    Hi, Is it possible to use the small pneumatic cylinders to make a LPE engine, obviously the cylinders need modifying but it would be cool/interesting to get one working, i'm not so bothered about the power output.

    How do the tracks stay on the wheels?
  7. SNIPE
    Herringbone gears, Also maybe something to position the new 8 tooth gear so it meshes on a 90 degree angle to a 20 tooth double bevel gear or a 12 tooth double bevel gear (yes they mesh fine.)

    I got around 10 of these they were part of the lego models like the technic Ferrari's and the 8070.

    which is the widest out of: Williams F1 (8461)) Silver Champion (8458) Grand Prix Racer (42009) Ferrari F1 (8674)

    I insert more tha 1 stud in all the time and there not damaged at all
  11. SNIPE
    I'll try that, thanks Edit: Sorry, looks like its too big as there is two even bigger ramps as well that will be needed, maybe this is too hard to replicate in lego

    Hi Is there some brick/way I can make a corner for a half pipe, something like this but with no railings I have the normal straight bits for the ramps but I'm stuck on the corners, i'm using these for the straight ramps or maybe something like it which has a curve better suited to the corner (if I can make a corner) I cant seem to find anything in LDD/Bricklink Regards, S

    Ah I see the new palette in LDD normal mode now, Thanks
  14. SNIPE
    Yey! The old technic seat is there and the old brick separator tool is added too, this is one good update, Still wishing for technic steering elements, and the 'technic/lego sports' spring box Also the technic axle flexible 26L, but so it can be dismantled like you can the mini Linear Actuator Trick, so you can use the axle ends on their own, but that is a big ask The small end of the flexi-axle is almost the inverse of this PS, how did you get all those legacy colors up in the palette. mine is different to this.

    Some crown gears that can mesh with regular lego spur gears would be good,crowns can act as spur gears too if the teeth are cut right. however unlike the current crown gear we don't need the bit sticking out in the middle for the axle hole.
  16. SNIPE
    you mean 1 plate thick or 1 half liftarm thick or what/

    Something to connect to these two:
  18. SNIPE
    I don't understand why it has to be two motors, the two outputs in the motor are connected by gears anyhow so surely you should be able to externally gear them back down so get close to what RPM/torque, or like a little less speed than the high speed output and a little less torque then the high torque output but still might be useful. The external gears are just cancelling out what the internal gears are going.
  19. SNIPE
    Can't you link the two motor outputs at the right ratio so that it will go fast and have more torque? Also cant you use one or two PF battery boxes for the RC motors? saves space and is a better shape to build around.
  20. SNIPE
    Maybe it doesn't matter that much if the tread links are meshed with the gear you can use stickers or maybe some grey lego domes on each side of the gear , that should hide the color. Maybe the chain links will fit over something like a gear , maybe the large lego pulley. the ground will drive the chain links anyhow when You move the model. Just try putting links around wheels and pulleys, etc. wheels usually have a groove in the middle which the links wlll sit in.

    it looks like duplo gears and axles are compatible with lego technic, see here http://www.marshall.edu/lego/lessonplans/houston/legoprojects.html here is the duplo gears
  22. SNIPE
    Thanks very much for the LXF file Gerger, I have played around with it now and made the mechanisms a bit better and simpler, also some gears were not meshed fully, fixed that. LARGE photo Here is the LXF file: http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/finneykris/mfr/chassis.lxf Regards, Snipe

    4:1 26:1 30:2 38:1 39:1 I was going to just do *6 1's since there was so many great entries but I feel entry 30 is the best overall - the yellow walls and the way those clear duplo panes are used for the swimming pool, it has the perfect level of detail in, mainly around the walls/balcony. Good work guys!

    I got mine for £160 around 16 days ago
