I now know that it is possible to make one of these, but does anybody have any
ideas on how to make a pneumatically powered transmission have more than two
speeds? I have just built one, but I failed horribly. It has two gears, but
only one speed because of a screw up with gear ratios. This also brings up
another question: Has anyone made a decent transmission out of non-auto
chassis/super car parts? I am thinking of making a "Super Passat Sensation,"
but I really don't have the money at the moment to buy an 8448. </awkwardly
