Well, I don't have any of the new pistons so this may not work, but have a look at this setup (click for larger view): (URL) With the new pistons, you should be able to use the new 1x2 liftarms instead.

i'm just curious is it possible to put piston's vents inside the axlehole? if yes then maybe the rest of vent will stick out enough to still join the tube hmm? pixel "Tobbe Arnesson" <StPnAtM@lotek.nu> wrote in message news:Hq1HJ7.rDH@lugnet.com... (...) (21 years ago, 17-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic)

Hi Pixel, (...) Yes, they fit perfectly (...) Unfortunately no, the pneumatic tube is very loose on the remaining part of the vent :( Philo (21 years ago, 17-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic)

hi philo it's a pitty it could be elegant solution :) of course you checked liftarm's axlehole :) ie 1x2 liftarm pixel "Philippe Hurbain" <philohome@free.fr> wrote in message news:Hq1sxr.16Jo@lugnet.com... (...) (21 years ago, 18-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Of course if you could use the thin liftarm it would be better, but I think the wide liftarm is also an elegant solution :) ROSCO (21 years ago, 18-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) This solution should also work for small pistons. I'd have less concerns about breaking them due to excess stress. Kevin (21 years ago, 18-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) I think I'd be worried that bending forces when operating the cylinders could cause the thin liftarm to snap the inlet. At least with the wide liftarm, the forces would be carried by a substantially larger area, and with the hose also (...) (21 years ago, 18-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic)
