Who made this 8 belt inline balancer?

Post by Aru »

I've searched the internet, blueprint database, and the forums, but I can't seem to find this design anywhere, let alone the original posting. I'm trying to find out who made this (or contributed in the case of several) because I like to put the designers in the blueprint names.

Beyond any other answers this could easily have been reinvented multiple times.

I think it was actually Jackiethegreen on Reddit who first made an posted it; see this Reddit comment, in which he claims to have made it, with exactly the same blueprint, and the other comments which have many similar blueprints. That post is probably from when all of them were created.

Of course it might have been discovered (semi)independently later, or someone may have discovered it earlier but not posted anything online.
Have you considered using flow routers yet?
