Re: The perfect 2 speed Transmission..... features...

Okay i've got it.... forget the dogs... lets just slide the gears back and forth like cheesy poofs do..! instead of 32 pitch we'll use 24pitch steel gears this larger gears will offset it so there is room for the pneumatic ... think of all the things we DON'T have to machine : The dog, the dogmates inside the gears, the hex shaft (with a nice hole running through the whole shaft!) that is quite a bit... and i'm pretty sure lack of durability is of minimal concern... cheesy poofs never had stripped gears and they slid 32 pitch steel gears! 24 pitch is stronger.... i think GUn also did this .. it'll be more compact, easier to shift, easier to build...! yay!
