(...) Thanks, Kevin. Had to break-in as matters seem to be getting outta hand. It appears we're getting a new generation of pneumatic fans. Great! (...) No, you use them the same way. The pneumatic switch is basically a directional control valve. It (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I glue a lot of Lego bricks. (In a good cause.) I use clear PVC/CPVC pipe cement. It is MEK based but has filler so it doesn't vanish after you apply it and before you press the pieces together. Apply with a tooth pick. Practice first. You can (...)

In real-life pneumatics, this port would be brought out (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think it is a rare sort of glue where I say that crazy glue is LESS nasty, but it is... Oateys IS nasty stuff, so in my view that's a reason to use CA/ACC. That said, and while I know Ondrew has done some great work (and others have too) (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
