 | | Pneumatic hose color usage
|
|
In one of the LEGO pneumatic basic sets, you get a light grey hose, a black hose and a blue hose. I used the blue hose to get from the pump to the switch, the black hose on the contract port of the piston (to match the black cap that is there), and (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) A half beam...or a technic plate etc... That's a great idea! Regards, Paul (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) When dismantling the 8865 I used a similar technique, only half a beam (like <part:32063> or <part:2825>) instead of a full beam and <part:3959> or (URL) instead of the antenna. Taking the pin out of the half beam afterwards is easy. - David (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

I simply use a 16L beam with cross axle/peg type pegs in the outermost holes. You align with the target beam on the one peg and then press the two beams together forcing the black peg out with the other cross axle peg. I've done whole 8865's this (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Teeth, man. Use your teeth! :-) When I was much younger, and a little short in the brains department(1), I used my teeth for much of my difficult LEGO disassembly. Consequently, I have a chipped tooth and many chewed up LEGO parts. Seriously, (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I've always used the official technique of making the T-shaped piece from two axles and pushing the peg out. If the black pegs are *really* stubborn, I build a sort of block with a 2x2 hole down the middle and lay the technic beam and peg over (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)

As most of you know, the black friction pegs included in Technic sets issued before 1990 had a design that made them extremely hard to work with. I was wondering how the rest of you go about removing these things from other other pieces. The method (...) (21 years ago, 1-Jul-03, to lugnet.technic)
