They are pretty darn complex themselves---universal joints, differential gears, crown gears, bevel gears, worm gears, gear racks, etc. I take exception to your inference that Fischertechnik is "superadvanced" beyond LEGO Technic parts. LEGO doesn't have a slip ring though. - Fred -- Fred Martin | fredm@media.mit.edu | (617) 253-7143 | 20 Ames St. Rm. E15-301 Epistemology and Learning Group, MIT Media Lab | Cambridge, MA 02139 USA
