Um, I think what Dave (??) was saying is that you can motorize the small pump (mini pump) and make an "electric pump" The difference between the 2 pumps is size and ease of connection to a motor. the manual pump is really best suited for a (...)

In my ongoing quest to be 9V vs 4.5V, I found a 4.5V Technic motor plus some 4.5V wiring cables. Anyone interested in trading for a used 9V original or gear motor? Calum (23 years ago, 30-Apr-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

Hi guys and gals! I'm trying to come up with some concepts for a cartesian gantry crane (automated, of course!) for train1 for loading/unloading containers onto flatbed cars. Now, since the only stuff I've built is passenger, I've no idea what a (...) (23 years ago, 29-Apr-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
