Nothing particulary new, but it's a nice assembly. Pneumatics are pretty
standard, no point in reinventing the wheel. I don't know who discovered having
the the trolley slide on liftarms, but I got the idea from Ross Crawford- thanks
Ross! :-)

If you want a roomful of people to pay attention to your Lego creation, have a
dish of candy involved, it works.

A working machine!
Excellent!
I really like it when a model actually can do something.
And it also reminds me of one of the earliest Technic models I had (still have
it, the 856) and built nearly 30 yars ago. Yellow is excellent for making
Technic models.
Thankyou!
Olof
