@curv_lab: Ever wonder why your car doesn’t skid out every time it turns? The answer is the differential, and once you see how it works you can’t unsee it. Spent weeks studying this down to the smallest detail so I could break it down fast. Then I designed my own 3D printable differential for an RC car, threw it in a belt driven build, and sent it down the road.

You can copy my homework, but don’t make it obvious

Cool, reminds the video explaining this from 1950s

we've all seen that one differential video right?

This is like an update version of that one black and white differential video

So… you watched that old engineering video. Is that what you meant by weeks?

What style of drawing is that? I always wanted to learn it 👀

The first 3/4 looks exactly like the old GM training video on differentials.

And the best part is, that the guy who invented this came to the same conclussion WITH ONLY MATHEMATICS ! He reached a mechanical solution using ONLY NUMERICAL CALCULATIONS WITHOUT DRAWING A SINGLE SKETCH ! And this concept hasn't been changed in almost 200 years

"I've spent a week to understand how differentials work" You spent 6 days procrastinating, 30 minutes or less looking at videos of operation, and the rest of the day figuring out how your design software works. There is nothing difficult in a differential

you never explained how 4 cogs all on different angles receive power simultaneously to do this

good job, but i am still drawn to the 1937 GM black and white film demonstrating diffs. it really is an example of perfect cinema.

There's an old black and white video that explains this in almost the exact same way. Very interesting stuff.

Oh, so that's why those tire marks couldn't have been made by a Buick Skylark 😳
