Hey all, for those of us who are interested in the mechanical design behind some of the great LEGO creations that have appeared throughout the year, and if you have not already done so, check out the LEGO Education Constructopedia. There are some great diagrams and explanations on simple ways we can improve our design skills with the use of gears and pulleys, including compound gearing, changing pully direction and speed, idler gears, and a few other topics which create the 11 pages of engineering tips and tricks.
