(...) One question I have is related to the construction of the first generation of the Lego pneumatic system that had 2 ports for each piston (circa-1989). I had a piston from a 1989 pneumatic universal set in which I tried to put water in them to (...) (19 years ago, 23-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Looks like we did it again. I read this post, (URL) wanted to come up with a working pressure regulator. I came up with, you guessed it, a single switch piston and rubber bands. I snapped some photos, which will appear on Brickshelf soon, and (...) (19 years ago, 23-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) I think that we can make a simple pressure regulator using a piston, a single switch, and rubber bands. The piston is mechanically linked to the switch. Rubber bands compress the piston. When the piston is most contracted, the switch is off. (...) (19 years ago, 23-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)

Vineet, if I have been following the threads properly- the breakthrough that may allow the use of hydraulics with Lego penumatic components is the set up which takes out the implicit forth port so you dont get squirting oil from your creations. It (...) (19 years ago, 23-Nov-05, to lugnet.technic)
