Hi,

I am looking for some lego pneumatic parts, such as the pistons, cylinder
and the T-connectors for connecting the tubes.  First of all, pistco does
not sell the T-connectors separate from the kit (~$100).  Neither do they
sell the pistons, or the cylinder separate... I found a site where I can
purchase them, but they really overprice each piece.

I wonder if anyone would please recommend alternative solutions for me.

Your help is greatly appreciated!

Try Bricklink:

Bricklink is a wonderful place to buy pneumatics.  I'm really into pneumatics
and I have over 100 pistons (large plus small) from bricklink.

I also recommend the 8455 Technic Backhoe.  It has new form factor pistons which
make it a bit more challenging to hook two pistons together back to back, but
challenges are fun!

I just bought 8 red and 8 yellow 48mm single ported cylinders (the original
pneumatic parts from LEGO), plus 4 64mm yellow cylinders from bricklink.  Never
played with them, so I wanted to get some to work with.

Kevin
