Miller 4th Grade TAG

September 7, 2005

The original winch needs 28 turns to raise the weight.
How many times will we have to turn this one?

With a worm gear box the weight does not fall.

The computer still works on the Internet to see the LEGO City at Marshall University.


The black worm gear has only only tooth.
Messing with the 24 tooth gear, the handle takes 24 rimes more turns to to lift the weight.
24 times 28 is 672
That's a lot of turns.
