Perhaps the best explaination of a complex set of gears I have ever seen. The cycle demonstration is a hoot! You won't see that on TV today - the OSHA inspectors would shut you down so fast your head would spin.
Dude this video is so legit, like this is the best way to dscribe a diferential/ driveshaft function lol im deff gonna have to show my g/f this video. I was just trying to describe how this works a couple days ago and she was still confused. lol
anyone have a video on the thorson/geason (name spelling?????) been 30 years since I though of that differential. That chunk is locked up 100 per cent of the time and always differentiates perfectly. the math that went into cutting those gears must have been near as complicated as determining how to get to the moon. L -o-
why cant science channel and other so called educational channels have things like this that actually educate individuals on various technologies or basic engineering, instead of having over dramatized nonsense that only looks at the surface of those things.
pure awsomness, I wish there was a video like that for everything, then I would be a genius couse I would know so much from watching alot of videos like this, but unfortinately the world is not perfect and I goto read books if I wanna learn things, couse they don't have videos like this for everything, but this is fun, interesting, educational, and very clear, and if I didn't listen to one bit, I can just rewind and watch again
