Regarding the pnuematic cylinder: how many are included in this set? Is the part contained in any other sets? What is the action like - does it simply provide consistent resistance to motion in either direction (compression and extension)? I am (...) (24 years ago, 3-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

Many thanks, Bianca - this gives me a much better idea of their (un) suitability to my application. BTW: since they are indeed pnuematic, why does the catalog describe them as hydraulic - idiot ad writer maybe?? -Derick (...) (...) (24 years ago, 4-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm just a layman), but Lego's misnamed "hydraulics" are just pneumatics. Pneumatics refers to any system using air, which is compressible. Hydraulics is a completely different way of doing things, it uses a noncompressible (...) (24 years ago, 5-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)
