Could you maybe show how much torque some of these provide? Especially the 90° stepper one does seem pretty smart but I am wondering if it provides enough power for even small applications
Lego really is a genius product. Makes it so easy to just look at and intuitively understand what's happening in a machine. I wish we had legos like this when I was a kid, perhaps I'd be a mechanical engineer.
Thing is they kinda did exist when we were kids, they were just buried in mail order catalogs that our parents would have already needed to know about to order from. It's not too late to enjoy them, though.
Have you considered doing videos showing how these mechanisms can be used/what they might be good for? I love seeing the series and would love to see them more in their mechanical context!
Lego Technic is absolutely wonderful both for introducing newcomers to mechanical engineering as well as for experienced people to just be creative. Have fun on your journey!
Its very useful, but of some reason I Wonder how you made this. This is fantastic and a lot of job put on this is just impressive. How do you even come up with all this? Btw this is the most enjoyable of your videos!
@@toddwz Ik but its still impressive how he uses it to make something in lego. That I mean is there is no tutorial to do this. He had to came up with it self
I think it would be pretty difficult to take an output from the orbit of the gear rack, since it oscillates side to side AND forward an backward. You would have to design a mechanism to eliminate one of the axis of movement if you only needed the one, which is what the video does
I was thinking the same thing. Imagine the performance and the high RPMs it could achieve. If it makes it easier to achieve the higher RPM? Hmm that would be a cool experiment is to see how different cam shafts affect performance and engine strength
@@kimfauth9542 The battery box is part 8878, it is rechargeable and has 15 different speed modes in both directions. I really like the battery box for both of these features along with its incredible battery life, but sadly they went out of production a year or two ago.

I found very old lego set from my uncle house the box already rip off or whatever you see from old product

Man that first one is so smooth, you my good sir are an artist
What a find! I'm interested in creating automata with technical lego so these videos are fabulous. Thanks

These are the greatest mechanical principles of all time
Crazy how you can derive so many other directions of motion from circular rotation of a motor
Fascinating ! More like these Please. Thank You. Subscribed !
Just amazing! Keep going!
Might go to Mechanical Principles 10, maybe even more!
Loving these videos! :D
Glad you like them!
@@redshoebox I hope you have fun making them! :)
@@xmysef4920 I do enjoy making these myself too!
the Oscillation with worm gear took me awhile to figure it out
Crazy how these ones always blow up
While this specific 90 degree stepper is pretty ingenious, it doesn't have enough torque for most practical uses.
Its very useful, but of some reason I Wonder how you made this. This is fantastic and a lot of job put on this is just impressive. How do you even come up with all this?

See the description. The ideas are from other people.

at 1:25 - 1:32 the motor sounds harmonic and quite like a vocal warmup technique
cant wait for next!
Part 07 coming soon!
@@redshoebox yay!
where did you get that battery that has controllable voltage?
1:56. Very impressive.
People who watch with captions: I am superior
Excellent!
Great work. Video 1 is already unavailable..
Can you make the first oscillator with the smaller gear track? Not the 1x4 brick one, the other one? And with a 16 tooth gear?
Part 7 coming soon!
You've already got oscillating motion on the rack. Transferring it to the gears seems redundant unless you REALLY need perfectly sinusoidal movement.
I think it would be pretty difficult to take an output from the orbit of the gear rack, since it oscillates side to side AND forward an backward. You would have to design a mechanism to eliminate one of the axis of movement if you only needed the one, which is what the video does
What if a engine had a triangle cam for the valves?
I was thinking the same thing. Imagine the performance and the high RPMs it could achieve. If it makes it easier to achieve the higher RPM? Hmm that would be a cool experiment is to see how different cam shafts affect performance and engine strength
What motor is it all connected to? Is it a train or RC motor?
A LEGO power functions Large motor.
@@redshoebox I'm talking about the main battery unit
@@redshoebox The box with the button

Neat!
Hey, I recognize that stepper? Lego Mastering Technology?
LEGO Technic Mastery, yes. Link in the description to the original video.
@@redshoeboxI was close to remembering the name lol. Thanks for the reply.
1st could be new valve design lol
Very true!
are you a mechanical engineer? just interested.
1:20 he's just like me 😔
