Hello, I have just got a LEGO 8386 Ferrari F1 Racer 1:10 set and have dicovered a new part, cant find other sets with it so it seems that i have been used in this set first. You can see the part here: (URL) of the car (without decals) is seen here, (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) From what I've been told of mechanical physics, part distortion is also a concern. There's a tradeoff between making the pump design sturdier and keeping the overall weight/size down. Flat component pumps can be squeezed into available empty (...) (21 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Dang, I just remembered. It had two 6-pump radial compressors. The "pumps" were the large kind. I think it was all hooked up to a car battery. :-) -TJ (21 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hi David, Thanks for the ideas. I'll consider the planar design concept (done them before with large pumps), but first I want to try radial. I'm curious which design would have less moving parts? Less moving parts, less friction, higher (...) (21 years ago, 4-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) :) TJ, if you remember, just tell Steve privately. For me LEGO is about learning and inventing, so I just want to wait for my brickshelf parts to arrive and try out that 12 small pump radial compressor design. :) Kevin (21 years ago, 4-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Did you happen to get a look at the compressor? We just need to know what size pumps it had. :) Steve (21 years ago, 3-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic)

Last night I had this freakish dream of a giant LEGO scorpion crawling around (and very quickly too) on the floor. Kevin was standing nearby and commenting on its performance. There was someone else there too, I think it was Eric. The scorpion was (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic)

(...) While a rotary design will probably be a bit more powerful, laying them all flat could be more versatile. You could place cylinders anywhere you've got a little open space, rather than having to make space for a bulky cluster of them. (URL) (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
