It’s a modified version of an old reverse gearbox that I made awhile ago. I have a video on that one and you can modify that mechanism to the shape of your machine if you would like! (That’s what I did with this one). Hope that helps :)
@@knexmaker1357 OMG, Yes! That helps a lot! In fact, that is the exact one that inspired me to try to create an auto reverse mechanism. I copied the first few gears, but instead of a weighted wheel, I made a compliant mechanism to handle holding each direction. I’ll try re-creating yours exactly, to really get a feel and understanding of how each works. (I really hope my version works, because it’s less than half the size/parts, and works mounted in any way (not gravity dependent.) (yes I will make a video if it works!)
This looks amazingly well polished even at this early stage. I would love to see more details about how that elevator works.
Thanks! Idk it’s pretty complicated
Nice layout! In my opinion the manual crank should be bigger so it feels nicer to use.
Like how so do you think I can’t make it higher (maybe), but like extend the crank out farther?
Ahh. Geometrically and aesthetically pleasing. Hyped for what's to come 👍
Thanks!
The automatic to manual switch for the elevator is nice!
Thanks! I think it’s pretty cool also
this is gonna be an incredible build
Yes it will be!
Beautiful
I’d like to know how you made the auto reversing gearbox for the elevator. I’ve been trying for months, and there’s not much content on them.

Wow :-D now we are talking
Thanks!
