Building a Trammel of Archimedes with Lego Technic The Trammel of Archimedes, also known as an ellipsograph, is a fascinating mechanical device used to draw ellipses. With Lego Technic, we can create a functional model of this device to explore its principles and mechanics. What is the Trammel of Archimedes? The Trammel of Archimedes is a mechanism that converts rotational motion into linear motion along two perpendicular axes. It consists of two arms attached to sliders that move along perpendicular tracks....

Understanding the Fulcrum with Lego Technic The fulcrum is a fundamental concept in mechanics, acting as the pivot point for levers. By using Lego Technic, we can create models that illustrate how fulcrums work and their importance in mechanical systems. What is a Fulcrum? A fulcrum is the point on which a lever rests or is supported and on which it pivots. It plays a crucial role in determining how a lever can be used to lift or move loads....
