(Sorry for the redundancy of this question)

Up to now I've just moved the two levers of the input valves.  My system uses 2
large cylinders facing each other.  The steering arm moves 3 valves, which are
offset from each other and two of which are pulled by rubber bands.

Sorry I haven't had chance to draw my pneumatic steering system yet (in the same
style as my Pick and Place robot:
<http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=1106191> ) because I'm moving
jobs soon and it takes a little while to draw, even in Visio.  I shall draw it
when I can.
