So I was just cleaning up and sorting my collection (in whatever spare time I
can find, between the renos and getting the abode ready for our upcoming
baby)...
When I happened across this guy--
Thinking that it’s been a long time since I’ve actually done something with it
(and having new PF motors to boot...) I rebuilt the thing--
click on pic above or link here to get more
pics--http://sandysparky.net/gallery/lego_big_blue_2
The new PF motors work wonders for pneumatic air compressors. Took the large
pumps, removed the springs, added some cams and such, and et voila! Strong and
reasonably quick.
So YouTubed it--

Train moving down the track(ish--still not perfect)
So there you are. I’m going to work on it more to see what kind of mods will
make it better...
