    Yes I stand corrected, reddish brown, regardless, as near as I can figure the parts in question are, as near as I can figure 6 to 8 years old. However they became brittle over a period of time, they didn't start out brittle, that is what I find concerning. They were not subjected to harsh environments either and the failure rate is close to 50%, so far and I am sure the degradation is continuing.

    After my recent experience with dark brown, that is one vehicle I would steer clear of, nothing like watching your parts crumble like potato chips upon disassembly to avoid usage.

    It would be interesting to see the electronic components in those BAS elements.

    TLG really cares about what I think, they must, every time I have any sort of interaction with them, they request I fill out a brief survey.

    Thanks everyone for the quick responses, lot of good to know stuff. Looks like I will be replacing all the gears in my latest build, hopefully with spur gears and proper bracing (extremely important) and the tips provided, I can eliminate the skipping that is plaguing my crawler. I foolishly used the crown gears simply because they were all black.

    Hope this is an okay place to ask, didn't really want to create a whole new topic. Which gear is better, least likely to skip under load, the bevel gears or spur gears?
  7. Johnny1360
    Sure looks better with grey axles, makes you wonder why?
  8. Johnny1360
    Indeed, could be a very interesting mechanism, hopefully the looks won't be modified too much to make it actually work.

    Incredible, I have looked in on this thread for many years and have followed your progress but apparently it has been awhile. I have always enjoyed the mechanisms you create for your clocks but these beauties are just simply incredible, very well done sir, it is good to see others share your enjoyment.

    Those new track pieces are larger than I had originally thought, thanks for the pictures. I wonder if that curve is the same as train track? Looks like excellent monorail track.

    Well first reaction, I like this set, loco looks okay, crossing arms and a helicopter.

    Sometimes the cylinders become a bit slow, I often find if I just physically run them in and out through their full range of motion a few times, they will work a little more smoothly and a bit faster.
  13. Johnny1360
    What a beast, very well done, a real inspiration for me, really impressed with the technical aspects.
  14. Johnny1360
    Lol, can't complete the poll because I stubbornly refuse to answer number 3.

    Weird response after the passage of so much time. Did any of this ever pan out?
