Product 1: Use this set with the 10874 Steam Train or 10875 Cargo Train to extend the possibilities of your LEGO DUPLO train collection.

length for straight and curve on the switch and then make compensating 1/2 straights and 1/2 curves. I know I could just take one piece out, and put it back in to feel it myself, but I am looking for a more logical way, so I am able to reason it.

I found this very interesting site about duplo rail dimensions, which covers the basics of duplo rails. Use this set with the 10874 Steam Train or 10875 Cargo Train to extend the possibilities of your LEGO DUPLO train collection. My rule is, if a track goes at an angle, say left, it is forbidden for the next-up rail to go right, you have to add a straight line.

I will note about the example you gave on Thingverse that the mechanical design of the moving parts seemed well thought out and could prove practical in a revised geometry. With level crossings, stops, switches and a combination of curved and straight track pieces there is so much they can do!You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The one thing I've really been missing is switches with one straight and one curved route, rather than the official wye type. The links are made with certain tolerance for lateral misalignment and will distribute it over the loop.

Since 12 curved pieces are needed to make a full circle, the number of left pieces minus the number of right pieces must be a multiple of 12. Ole Kirk Christiansen came up with this phrase to encourage workers to always produce the highest quality toys possible. A simple way to achieve that if there are an even number, would be to arrange them in non-colinear parallel pairs.

Wij hebben hier uiteindelijk een eigen oplossing voor bedacht en dat werkt maar dat is niet zoals het oorspronkelijk behoort te zijn. However, as a father, I also don't want broken duplo pieces, so I wanted to make sure the track is not under too much tension. Just by looking at the track I can feel in my dad bones that the trains are going to derail or the wagons are going to detach.

Nowadays, LEGO makes a vast range of toys for all ages, as well as teaching materials for children, which are distributed in over 130 countries. As discussed above the number of left pieces minus the number of right pieces must be a multiple of 12. The company has approximately 10,000 employees and is the world's third largest manufacturer of play materials. Therefore we can treat our 2-d vectors of (possibly) irrational numbers as a 2 × 2 = 4-d vector of fractions. While designing around the 'old' geometry is certainly something I'd be willing to accept, I figure the best scheme would be to use the newer geometry at 1.
