Time for everyone to see how well I draw!!!



A quick key as nothing I've drawn is recognisable!

Black=linkage bar
Red=standard linkage internal
Blue=bracket work
Green=gear stick
Orange=rose joint

The idea is that the rose joint can be moved up or down (therefore having an adjustable throw on the gear stick)

I haven done a lot of work on the idea as I'd like to get the car to a reasonable stage first but I hope you get the idea

[rally515]

WOW your a genius thats an amazing drawing how did you get it to look so reallll like a photo

Hahaha mona lisa and the mini gear linkage.. Sounds right ;)

[rally515]

Both the mini & moning lisa were produced by geniuses of there times so its only right to do so.
Now how do we go about doing this ?

[Artful Dodger]

haha il phone france ;)

the plot thickens! drawn up, some modifications done and i have a parts list for the mornin' need to use a lathe for this so im gonna have to use a mates.. really need my own!



havnt included any form of bracing or mounting but thats the easy part!

the use of a complicated rose mounting for the gear change is because it needs to slide to account for the transformation from a side to side movement in the rod to a rotational movement. im using a rocker spacer spring as a sort of helper spring and a center return. if it didnt have this it would be sloppy..

edit: damn, no idea how to rotate, can anyone help? XD
