(...) 8479 barcode truck has a lot of flex, if you can find it somewhere. 8008 stormtrooper should have one too, but mine was missing the cable, anybody else had that problem? (I didn't get around to call LEGO service yet.) Jürgen (25 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Yes, it's used exactly like this in 8868. The advantage is that you can nicely fasten the tubing with 1x1 tiles with clip ((URL) Jürgen Stuber <stuber@loria.fr> (URL) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.technic)

(...) It's the tubing from the 8002 Destroyer Droid (in brown) and the 8503 Scuba Slizer (in yellow). These sets have the rubbery, sloppy tubes. Virtually all other Technic sets have the plastic tubes which are much less flexible. Fredrik (25 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)

I have 2 different kinds of tubing in my collection. One lind is a stiff tube that holds its shape a bit when bent. The other kind is a very flexable tube that dosnt feel like ABS at all.

I added a Pneumatic Claw ( like the Airtech claw rig ) to my 8462 secondary model today, and learnt something very useful. The older flex tubing, like that is used in the 8462, is very handy when used as tubing extenders. I used two pieces running (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.technic)
