The main difference to the "big" ones is, that they convert a turning movement into 90° turns (like Sariels). While yours converts push movements into 90° degree turns. Thats why its so much smaller. Still cool build though...
Yes, you're right, and I've also made another compact version of 90° stepper converting rotations, HERE : th-cam.com/video/k42vgadEdOE/w-d-xo.html Thank you very much for your generous support & Enjoy the Video ^^
Oh, it can be used to shift gears in a gearbox as well as for any application requiring regular shifts.. in a clock for example, or maybe GBC guys could find an application for it, Who knows !?
This design is very nice and compact, my rubber band was a bit bigger so the normal way didn’t work but the design worked just by moving the rubber band to strap from the lever to the bottom rod thing and worked just fine. 10/10
Oh ! Great then, Making things small is the goal. I will definitely be making more small Lego Technic Mechanisms ! And Thank you very much for your generous support ^^
Ho ! Absolutely ! I made it specialy for sequential gearboxes like the Lego Technic Porsche one ^^ just need to extend the axle on both sides ! If you need any other information, do not hesitate to ask, I'll gladly help you out ... sinon, je suis français si ça peut aiser la communication ^^ Ça fait un bon paquet d'années que je regarde tes vidéos Haha, grand fan depuis toujours ;) ... OMG, je viens de regarder la date de ta première vidéo !! presque 10 ans sur YT ! Félicitations !
I tried making this, but i cannot get my lever to fully return to its resting position. it more often than not ends its motion with the 1/2 bush still resting on the #1 pin connector piece... thoughts? (I was using the same band & pieces, and made sure things weren't binding, etc.)
you have so much briliant content :) maybe my mom should not have give away all my lego when i was 15;( maybe i would still be able to create also nice things....
Yep, absolutely ! But the perfect 90° shift will be a bit wobbly... depending on what you intend to use it for, it shouldn't be a serious problem ^^ Happy building !
At first, Lego steppers were introduced to shift gears in a specific sequence in "sequential" gearboxes ! Here's an example of gearbox that uses a stepper : th-cam.com/video/XMSa7CriFQM/w-d-xo.html I also realy recommend you watching this short video of a stepper on a sequential gearbox HERE : th-cam.com/video/HwkWFurMiM0/w-d-xo.html Besides that, a stepper can be used in a clock to make the pointer move by small increments.

many Lego official sets actually have some. You ca find spare ones there: www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x71&name=Rubber%20Belt%20Small%20(Round%20Cross%20Section)%20-%20Approx.%202%20x%202&category=%5BRubber%20Band%20&%20Belt%5D#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}
You can do a lot of things with this mechanism ! You can use it to shift gears in a gearbox, I'd use it to shift the hand in a clock, Or even move a conveyor belt, step by step !
In this video, You can see a gearbox : th-cam.com/video/XMSa7CriFQM/w-d-xo.html A gearbox is a device that enables you to change a rotation speed at will !

I think you can use it with a servo motor too
Probably the only way to put a shifter on my modded lego 8109 truck
this is literally the kind of invention we need to go back in time and give to the ancient civilizations
@Need2connect shut the up
@Need2connect I bet you’re really fun at parties.
I did one of these and it turned out perfect!
Great instructions!
Splendid Jacob ! Thank you very much for your generous feedback ^^

Lego Technic Mastery that's perfect!
I am making a Lego technic car.
And this can come in handy when shifting the gears on the car👍
Great ! I'd love to see this someday !
Now combine it with all the sequential gearboxes that require to turn the lever 90 degrees to shift.
It could also be used as a fidget device.

Now I can make a lego revolver with a revolving barrel
At first it didn't work, then I looked at how you had the rubber band and moved it and now it works just fine, thanks.
I'm glad you could work it out ! Thank You for your feedback and generous support ^^
I just found this channel but boy do I like what I see!
I’ve been looking for this vid for years bc I remember building this and have been wanting to build another
Nice! I like the cool smaller mechanisms.

This is fantastic. Wery good.
Why does the music sound like "horse with no name"
now i can't un-hear it
i cant unhear it too
ye it does
Very simple but essentials good job
Nice👌🏽 Idea for a sequential gearbox
VERY nice, thank you for sharing and keep up the good work!
+Shadow Elenter I'll surely keep it up as hard as I can ^^
you are a clever dude, bro. My compliments
Oh !! Thank You very much, I truely appreciate Your support ^^
I bet You're clever too ;)
I've been needinmg something like this for a while now.
I'm happy to be able to provide it for you ;)
people making semi automatic lego guns: Its free real estate!
wow... you don't need to hear this from me, but you are really smart man!
Tres bon concept, c'est le plus compact que j'ai vu bravo
it's almost 3 years now, but still it's very cool and unique.
Thant you it's very compact and simple !
This smooth jazz sounds a lot like a Phil Collins’s song.
“Another day in paradise.”
Yep ! they sound similar ^^
Have I already liked? I do it again!
I just got the best idea for a 4 speed sequential gearbox
Nice and verry simple! 👍
But 90° cant be considered as micro stepping xD
Thank you !
"Micro" was for the stepper itself in fact ;)
You can still gear it down for micro steps indeed ^^
Lego Technic Mastery Okay 🙈 I missunderstood this part xD
very cool and small!
Living up to your name!
Heck, that is useful!
Ohhh !! Thank you very much for your generous support !
This makes me want to do some more just for You ;)
Wow,i used it in a car with 4 speed Transmission
😊
Excellent! Thank you!
I have a question, is there any alternative pieces I could use instead of the wheel?
Very good!
I leave this under every video I watched, it helps the algorithm.
What frustrates me is that I know I have the parts but I can’t find them so anyone pls help
Go to a website like pick a brick
@Jack same dude
Thanks for giving me instructions I made it it's cool
You are welcome fellow ;)
That's like a intermittent motor on movie projector
Very compact ! Doesn't work for driving gearbox like on porsche ?
Ho ! Absolutely ! I made it specialy for sequential gearboxes like the Lego Technic Porsche one ^^
just need to extend the axle on both sides !

I love the design. Your channel should have the word Amazing in it! Your a DaVinci fan too, I saw his exhibit at the DIA.
Wow, Thank you ! That must have been a great exibit, and yeah, DaVinci Fan too ;)
Happy Building !
In addition, it's withh a lot of pieces !!!
Where do you film you videos? I need to improve my quality of my videos.
You'll laugh :
You should show on of the creations you did and then show them to the lego company
This could work for a Sequential gearbox design.
A M A Z I N G!!!!!
I got a lego ad before this.
Nice ^^
Am I allowed to use the micro stepper for my upcoming project?
Well it's not patentable because it isn't novel and it's not copyrightable because it's purely functional, so there was no need to ask permission.
Great work! Got my sub!
Thank You very much for Your generous support ^^
Very nice
Thank you for your generous support !!
thx for the idea😊
They say super easy to build but what they mean is: "Super easy for me, a lego super genius, to build!"
Is there a piece I could substitute for the disk? Can't find one in my collection.
Yes ! any beam will do the work if mounted like this : bricksafe.com/files/LegoTechnicMastery/mechanisms/Stepper%20Alternative.png
Enjoy ;)
tanks for tat .I can use it to my lego safe
Very awesome, can't figure out how to apply it to one of my own gearboxes though?
+Jonathan Builds I have some video solutions coming out this after noon on YT if it helps :)

Nevermind. I had the band on wrong. oops. ;D
I made a bigger version that's heavy duty. The lego '' Smart lock''
gave me the idea to make a 90° rotater
Oh ! Very interesting ! Have you posted a video or pictures of it ? If so, I'd absolutely love to see ^^ !

I rebuilt it a few times and it still doesn’t work. I have no idea why.
pretty clever
Make a technic motorcycle with a transmission that uses this
using this for a locking mechanism
What is this used for?
Hi, great custom! I was just wondering, does this work with other colored rubber bands?
I found it works best with small white ones,, larger ones scould work if you manage to make them tighter.
Thanks! Also, does this work with loom bands?
I guess you could at least try ^^
amazing! May I apply to MOC? Of course I reveal the source.
Yes you may
you have so much briliant content :) maybe my mom should not have give away all my lego when i was 15;( maybe i would still be able to create also nice things....
Don’t have the pieces but when I used similar ones it worked
That is the great part about Lego ^^ I'm glad you could figure it out !
This is amazing but is there a way to motorize it so it can be rc for a gear box I'm making
+Farmboy Gaming Yes ! Very simply with a PF servo motor ! I'll provide instructions for this so stay tuned ;)
Nice. Is lack of torque an issue?
As I designed it for small mechanisms, It heardly handles large amount of resistance.
So its like a Minecraft lever to button contraption
Reminds me on paddle shifters from porsche 911
Well done pity compact
Great design!!!!
What is that exact wheel! I've been trying to order it for days
this is how a pen works, but in a different way
Its working!
The music sounds kinda like a cover of "A Horse With No Name"
Someone else actually already told me this ^^ I guess it must be true, so !
Do you think I should vary more the music onto my videos ??
Thank you
You're welcome !
Only problem is that it can't take almost any resistance.
Can wheel be replaced for a small beam?
Yep, absolutely ! But the perfect 90° shift will be a bit wobbly... depending on what you intend to use it for, it shouldn't be a serious problem ^^
Happy building !
cool
super !
Nice

Lego Technic Mastery Thank you ^^
where do you get your tiny rubber bands
many Lego official sets actually have some. You ca find spare ones there: www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x71&name=Rubber%20Belt%20Small%20(Round%20Cross%20Section)%20-%20Approx.%202%20x%202&category=%5BRubber%20Band%20&%20Belt%5D#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}
This with a secure locking mechanism
You mean, like a Geneva mechanism ??
How do you connect it to a car
This could be a semi automatic mechanism
Music goes hard
Smallest shifter ever
What is this or is it that I’m just not an engineer so I don’t know what it’s for
Sequential.
I am gonna make some comact mechanism today, it i finish it, i write here
Pov : you haven't got any elements for micro pistol
Interesting...
Very compact.
I did it but it doesn't work 🤷♂️🤷♂️
What you do with this t hing?
You can do a lot of things with this mechanism !
You can use it to shift gears in a gearbox, I'd use it to shift the hand in a clock, Or even move a conveyor belt, step by step !
I haven`t Build lego so I dont know Even what is a gearbox
