Re: pic: 6 speed?? Great in theory - lets see how it works!

Quote:
In theory, it is possible to have an infinite stage gear. Put threads on a cone and put a FIRST gear (the sideways ones in the kit) on top of it. Adjust its position with a weak motor, and you should be able to deliver the exact amount of torque that you want. I will put up drawings later when I scan them in (yep, i'm a paper and pencil designer), and I may even put it in a white paper. whether it will work.....
It's possible to have an infinite stage gear system but Im not sure if what you say will work. It's called a cvt or cct. I forget.
