(...) Hey that is spectacular. Big Big Big. Awesome how you used technic turntables for the tread drives. Nice solution. The height is impressive as is the cable guides and technic structure throughout. Great job! e (20 years ago, 31-Aug-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I've always thought a valve with similar form factor to a large cylinder, that works like a steam engine valve (URL) would be really nice. It would probably have significantly less resistance than a standard LEGO valve, and more importantly, (...) (20 years ago, 27-Aug-04, to lugnet.technic)
