Differential models created out of meccano parts

shashanka’s Team-BHP Garage

I found this photograph while looking for vendors for meccano parts - I am a part time hobbyist - on the net and was quite fascinated by it. The differential operating principle has fascinated me since I made the first - and sadly the only - meccano model of a standard crown wheel type of differential as a fourteen year old. This was from the gear set (type B) presented to me by an uncle when he returned from a stint abroad, to go with the No. 5 meccano set I possessed at the time.

I am submitting this photograph in the hope that other members - similarly inclined - may have had the good fortune to have made any of the models illustrated here, particularly the Torsen types.
