In the hour-long video, from the start to the end, only the first seven gears move visibly, and the 8th moves maybe a pixel. You probably couldn't move anything past the 3rd or 4th gear with your hand, depending on how low-friction the bearings are, how strong you are, and how little you care about hurting your hand. You could attach a long lever to one, but that'll only get you one, maybe two gears further.
- tunesmith 7y agoYeah, but that's just an engineering problem.
- chrisseaton 7y ago> that's just an engineering problem It's not - it's a physics problem - it reaches fundamental physical limits of the universe.
- FortCollinsDev 7y agoOkay, time for me to go sit in a dark room and think for a bit.
- jagged-chisel 7y agoLike he said, an engineering problem.
- Aeolun 7y agoPfft, hold my beer.
- samstave 7y agoYour arm is poorly engineered for this particular problem, so you are correct.
