(...) Finally I can compete again! ;^) I can do a half adder with 1 piston and seven switches, plus you get dual polarity pressure. Three switches for AND and four for XOR. This says that I can do single pressure logic line with one piston and three (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
