  1. when will the voting session be over?
  2. ahah poor australian guy :P you can buy 20 packs of flour and no one would notice it XD
  3. :D tiny little sled! nice one! the fact that the center of mass is on the track is a great thing man :) i did a yellow one too!
  4. this is just great! amazing creation man!
  5. Hey guys... i was thinking: as the snowing season is here, why shouldn't we make a thread to set a sort of snow vehicles "show"? including various solutions to deal with snow itself? i've already built a snowmobile wich im going to publish after the 15th december...i need to go to the mountain to shoot the video :D but i can anyway start with this solution that i've found to make the track of my new snowmobile so down with your fantasy guys and build something :D! or post here all your snow MOCs
  6. lol i don't even noticed that images were actually a link XD
  7. i like the shape you gave it in such a small model! well done but please find a different solution for those headlights XD
  8. yeah it's clear that someone has to push it for the first time into the system....but after that, will it continue its path? i think that if the magnets have an angle of no more than 30° it might work the repulsive force could be more than the attractive one and in theory it might get to the second magnet and then to the third and bla bla bla
  9. thanks mate ^^ quite complicated to write it down! tomorrow i'll remember to take a picture of it :) basically on the axle that connects the gear to the wheel, there's a bush between two beams...it prevents the axle from detaching from the diff gear :) yeah i sprayed the rims with a silverchrome paint :D
  10. anyone who wants to try definitely go for it :D i aint jealous !!
  11. so it kinda works... i should definitely try it when i get back in my hometown where i have the magnets :P
  12. i was suspecting something like that! is there anyone who owns enough lego magnets to test it XD?
  13. yeah man i believe that too! this is just a concept, the spacing, the angles, the wheels used are just theoretical at the moment :P i really need to try it with those few magnets i have at home... cool! would you post it :)? im curious! i tested this once when i was a kid...it kinda worked but it's so long time ago that i don't even remember how good it was...i need to re do it again
  14. well...if it can keep spinning for ten years in my room it would be cool anyway :D mine wasn't an attempt to make a perpetual motion lol anyway the model was just a concept...of course i'd reduce the friction of the wheels a lot someway and the magnets wouldnt be so small :P
  15. hi guys... i'd start saying that i aint an engineer so i don't know anything about maths physics and stuff like that... since i was a kid i had this thing in mind... it requires a little bit of imagination but i'll try to explain it the best i can: let's suppose that all the blue pins are the north pole of a magnet let's suppose that they can be at different distances let's suppose that the angle can vary do you think it's possible that the truck holding the black connector, facing to the magnets with the same pole so the force would be repulsive, can move along the rails? and if it would...what would it do if the rails describe a huge circle so every segment is almost straight? (so it has the less curvature possible) please prove me that it doesn't keep moving for ever because i'm about to buy 200 magnets and a lot of connectors to test it XD
  16. really really nice man! well done!
  17. same here xD
  18. actually when i saw the washing machine spinning in two directions i was like O.O then i saw the mechanism and it was so clever :D
  19. cool review man! i really can't wait to get the truck....i ain't interested in building it but those wheels... :wub:
  20. there's a reason why naruto is so skinny! he can't workout properly :D
  21. the guy from the shop told me that if i'll be quick in making instructions he'll be able to order a stock of 20 RC motors :) tomorrow i'll start making instructions ^^
