Hint L6 - Making rods turn with wheels or connectors

Sometimes you want your wheel to turn at the same time as the rod turns (maybe because you are using a motor to turn the rod). This can be achieved by attaching a tan connector Side-on to the rod, and sliding it along so that the small projection on the tan connector slots into one of the small holes in the wheel. 		Hint L6 - Making rods turn with wheels or connectors
Younger children Younger children may need helping in putting tan connectors on and taking them off.
You can also use tan connectors with connectors. In this case the small projection in the tan connector slides into one of the small triangular holes near the centre of the connector. An example where this approach is useful is in a windmill, where the sails may be made from 8 red rods on a white connector, and you want the sails to turn a rod that passes through the hole in the middle of the white connector.
