| (...) Oh ya, I knew the feet sucked a long time ago, and they were wrong! With wrong lower limbs and feet, the Mana Cat still moved around in an interesting way. Thanks for the constructive feedback, I had to conclude the project with a overdue (...) (19 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Sorry to hear it. It's always a little annoying when a creation doesn't work out. One thing you might want to look at for the next time is the proper anatomy of a cat, especially in the feet - your skeleton is missing a joint on each leg, and (...)

| That's too bad E. I know how it is though. Many of projects sit on my bench, and I wonder if I'll ever work on them again. Usually they are dissassembled. I'll light a candle for Mana Cat. Mecha can be hard that way. WE get so far and then the (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

|
| (...) Yes, for the moment, as a demo of how versatile the circuit can be. The idea is that you find your chosen function and put permanent hose swaps in the places where you no longer need to change polarity. Then just keep reversers in the places (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)

|
| I'm not going to finish the Mana Cat. I rather build something else. It was interesting to test out the leg configuration with the Mana. They actually work really well. (URL) The gearing works well and is strong. The controlability is tricky and is (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Yes, R1 and R4 are redundant as shown in the table notes :-) The idea was to start with A, B and C all being either differential inputs or switch positions. The use of a switch for A means that its input is buffered to the gate output, (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)

| (...) I am really getting the feeling that between you guys, you are really pushing pneumatic logic generally, not just in terms of Lego. Have you thought of taking some of your Lego logic designs, and miniaturising them into blocks? Even better is (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)

| (...) Mark, Aren't Reversor R1 and Reversor R4 redundant? R1 can reverse the A input, which drives a piston which controls a switch, who's output is reversed by R4. I see no reason for the piston and switch between R1 and R4, unless you are just (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)

| (...) Hi Mark, It sounds like the swiss army knives of pneumatic logic gates! Seriously though, it is going to take some serious study on my part to understand what all is going on here. Are you putting polarity reversors on all inputs and outputs? (...) (19 years ago, 6-Sep-05, to lugnet.technic)
