(...) That makes sense. I guess that over a long circuit the air in the system would loose its... uh... effectiveness at accurately sending and recieving the information from the RAM device, (I guess thats how you would say it.) and that a purely (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Speaking of liquids, Is it possible to replace the air in the pneumatic system to make a hydraulic system. I mean by using something like, oh say, 10 WT silicone oil? (URL) I guess not since you can't complete the circuit because of the (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hi Nathan, It is possible to make a sprayer using pneumatics. Imagine how a super soaker works. You have a water tank, and an air pressure tank. You pump up pressure in the air pressure tank. Once you release that pressure, the water is (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Billy, I'm pretty sure you could, but I doubt you'd want to use a piston per bit of memory. (...) Instead you might want to use a 1x10 technic brick, with long pins with friction in them. The idea being that you can slide the pins in the (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

Hi Like Tommy Eriksson I have also decided to post a reply to this old thread. I am in the process of trying to make LEGO fly but unlike Tommy, I am going for a small light powered glider that is catapulted from a Technic "ballista-like" affair that (...)

You guys are smart. I get lost reading your posts but can appreciate the genius displayed in them. Could pneumatics be used to pump a liquid? I mean, you know how air pressure is used in spray bottles/soap dispensors? The moving air goes over a gap (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

Hi all. I'm sorta new here so, I'm not real familiar with way the forums work. Anyhow, having seen the three position piston control by Kevin L. Clague, and other various pneumatic logic devices using Boolean logic and Boolean gates, I was (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Just so. (...) No, it wouldn't walk backwards. To make it work, you'd only have to interchange the hoses at the switches. That's because a suction force acts in the opposite direction to the traditional compressed air. Your walker will then (...) (19 years ago, 19-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
