- We needed to make some more ropes for a model of HMS Victory which Andrew is building and he needed some small ropes for the rigging and port hole covers. He made this rope winding machine out of Lego and using two of the Lego mindstorm motors he was able to connect the motors together so one acts as a generator and turns the opposite end of the machine to twist the strands together.
This video shows the machine winding small copper strands to make a small copper rope. Наука
Оригинально !
Заберу у внука Лего !
Hang a weight from both sides where you have to hold it manually to keep it from spinning also.
Brilliant!
Good old Lego!
It would be so awesome if there was a rope made of lego.Oh wait there is,i made one
Lol playing with my original mindstorm set,
Are you Danish? How come you didn't make it with meccano? Seriously it looks great. I feel like I want to build this, even though I don't make model boats and have no use for the ropes. Your pieces looks pristine. They started making technics again?
I dont have any meccano, the lego must be over 20 years old but has been kept in the loft in a sealed box for years.
Do you have the plans
can you share the plans for the machine?
I am sorry but we didnt have any plans, just made it up as it was built.
What gauge wire are you using?
+actingisme we used 0.1mm bare copper wire from wires.co.uk
You saw Lindybeige's video too ?
Havent seen that channel/video before.
