Super bag for women at work (All-in-one: shoulder bag, messenger bag, backpack)

Completion date: June 13, 2019 Shoulder bag (weight: 0.7kg) Messenger bag Knapsack (weight: 0.85kg) I had this idea of making a super bag for office ladies. For a long time, I was imagining a universal adaptor to convert tote bag to a backpack. (What I really want to say is, there could be a market out there for women who carries laptop everyday. Like me, as a salesperson.  We go to places, and work outside. ) That is too far away from me.  So, I finally was looking to transform my bag into a backpack instead.  I bumped into a bag that was already designed for 2-way wearing (long shoulder bag, short shoulder/hand bag).  I bought it.  I did a number of transformations so they are in sections below. The transformation took me around 1 month's time.  Original bag: Section 1: Umbrella slot Take a band and wrap it loosely around the umbrella. It should be big enough to allow the umbrella to...

Gear investigation: Banbao Lego crane

Completion date: May 16, 2020 1. Gear ratio: 8:24:40. The bottom wheel cranking the string at speed (8/24)*(24/40)=0.2x speed of the motor. 2. The top two wheels looks like pulley system to me, but I am not sure about the spinning speed of the top wheels, the first top wheel is slower than the bottom wheeler, that I observed. 3. The beginning of the bottom wheeling action is pulling less string because the circumference is small (less string winded).  So it pulls the string faster gradually as more string is added to the circumference. 4. Note I added the rewind crank on the other side of the motor. This is the final instruction of the Banbao booklet. All the builds have been fun for me, I got to know more about gears now (though still primitive). My thoughts towards the gear mechanism is that it is not as efficient as I thought it would be. - requires many gears to do 1 simple thing - gear design has to match the many requirements of the space, dist...
