...well, the smallest I can manage, anyway.  Of course, I am hoping to see some
challenges to this claim! :)

Fully automatic - needs only an air supply.  Uses two small cylinders and two
switches.  Roughly 9x9x12 studs in size.  I found the small cylinders quite
tricky to work with, and a few compromises were necessary to get it down to this
size.  Nevertheless, it does work, just!

So - who can produce a smaller one...!?
cheers, Alexander

(...) Great job Alexander! I have a biped that is close: (URL) guess I'd better get to work and make it smaller. Kevin (15 years ago, 8-Dec-09, to lugnet.technic)

Wow, brillant! I liked seeing the video and watching the switches work in sequence. Very cool! WOULD MAKE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE SIDE BAR - HINT HINT! (15 years ago, 19-Dec-09, to lugnet.technic)
