Well neither is gluing or screws :P -
[HELP] Keeping Axles Tight
skppo replied to Longhorn's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Can you use a 5.5 long axle with a stop? -
Panther
skppo replied to Zerobricks's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Are you powering one axle with one motor? If not I suggest you do as having the axles separate makes both motors use their max power and you could set up the drive shafts to go diffrent directions to help with body roll caused by them. -
Project Shipyard
skppo replied to Edwin Korstanje's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I like this more traditional style compared to your usual technic hull type. If I understood correctly this wont be the only model design? SCHOOL takes all my time and building one takes DAYS -

Whats up with the stacked gear racks in the steering mechanism? I like the blueness. -

Has someone calculated what amount of bricks will collapse form their own mass? Insane. I like it. -
[MOC] 60's Crawler
skppo replied to astakos's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
This one looks good! Most crawlers are fugly and have simple bodywork. The proportions are pleasing too, I mean that the wheel size fits the lenght and width. Only bad thing for me is the multicolored chassis. -

These are some nice parts and it's cool to see you taking requests. -
Impossible LEGO

Put a small rod (minifig things, flex tubes, etc.) in the pin, bend slightly and pull it out. -
Free Wheel and Flex Coupler
skppo replied to DrJB's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Piterx uses centrifugal force to engage the wheel. The rubber is not connected on both sides. -
Finland is nice in the winter and summer but the in between is horrible. No snow nor sun just dark, chilly and wet.

You ask for proof but provide none yourself. Tried it, did not work. The hose has twists in it. Only way I can see this working is with a slip ring. This is topologically equivalent to a hose with no bend. It just has a bit more slack. If you think like this: mark a spot on the inner side of the hose on the rotating part. Then mark the same spot on the stationary part of the hose. As the hose goes around the spot will always point at the center. If the hose wouldn't twist the other spot should always face the spot on the rotating part it. It however does not, as it does not rotate with the rest.

[WIP] Ford GTHO Phase 3

Which wheels are you going to use? It looks good. Will the roof be orange too? -
[MOC] ZIS 5 Truck with AK31 Crane
skppo replied to Milan's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Nice job! I like that you went for the windows instead of the usual holes. It makes it look less legoy somehow. Super smooth looks and realism all around. First in his new room that is. -

So beautiful but oh so horrible. -
[HELP] Compact Reverse Rotation
skppo replied to skppo's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I feel a bit stupid... Too bad I don't have any of those bevel gear cases. I guess I wanted something more impressive (odd) looking -
Hi! I was wondering if anyone has a solution on how to reverse the rotation direction of an axle in a way that is compact and has the input and output in line. Simplest I can come up with is using sets of 2 and 3 gears, first to reverse and second to reset offset. That how ever is far from optimal. Even a mechanical principle will be appreciated even better if you can build it too Thanks.

[MOC] Monster Truck 6x6
skppo replied to Madoca 1977's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
You always impress me by making your models look so good and still so functional. Well built and performs good too. A large scale trial truck next maybe? -
Lego Technic Ultimate Wheel Hub
skppo replied to nicjasno's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
4-way symmetry like the larger one or just single (vertical) axis? Do you have an idea how to do a MacPherson setup with these? Usually the problem is the lego springs though...
