Could you please let me know what Rob's clever mechanism is?  I'm very • into
pneumatics and have a few 2-vavle 12-output mechanisms of my own.

What I meant is, he uses one RCX output and one RCX input to control two
separate valves (thus two cylinders).  It's VERY good.  So easily with 1 RCX
you can do 6 cylinders with ease.

sparky is giving me massive issues and I can't load the page - but you can
cilck Robots then eXpedite, and scroll to "valves".)

I have more than a fair chunk of video of Rob's machine in action... one of
these days I'll MPEGize it for him.
