Gears for dummies
« on: Nov 03, 2004, 02:44:08 PM »
Can someone please explain to me the concept of gearing, spools, lockers, etc??  What are some of the differences, how they work? I honestly have no idea and I dont want to get in over my head.  what is the difference between a locker that replaces the spiders and one that replaces other stuff?   What are some adverse effects of lockers, spools, etc. especially on an IFS?

It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "
