Hey Guys as you can tell from my other post I am building a Antweight Full body spinner but I am also building a mini beauty 2 (Like anticide) but I am sturgling to find a suitable pneutmatic cylinder for the flipper like the one anticide used. I've checked ebay and had no luck, technobots states it is Unavailable typical... I am also strugling to find any nice suitable wheels maybe some small rc wheels? I don't know ;D...
Could you please point me in the right direction.
Thanks

hey there, i have quite a large amount of lego pneumatics (rams and switches). i can sell you a ram if you want? i'm selling them for £3 each or £5 for 2 :D
Hi, Jonny I am interested but I heard they can't handle 100psi ( they leak at that pressure) which is no good for me D;.
if they are modified they can :) i have a switch and a ram that i have modified that runs at 100 psi.
ooooo, how much? or you not selling the modded ones?
yeh i can sell you modded ones :) make me an offer.
I don't know how much they are, but £12 for both (Double the amount of the normal ones for your labour)?
yeh that sounds good, are you coming to aws? i could sell you them then or i could post them.
i would recomend them as they could chuck my ant across the desk :uhoh:
Well I've never been to an event yet, when and where? xD I might be able to attend.

you might want to join the robot wars 101 forum aswell, its very good for antweights :D
I may be able to attend ;D, what would be more powerful Lego Pneumatics or the one on Technobots? (25mm stroke)
they'd probably be about the same.
Noice Noice zoo zoo (Mighty boosh saying ;D) I'm not sure what to do haha D;?
Lego is the thing to use? I'm very intrested, would something like these sets work:

2: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lego-Pneumatic-AI ... 3a5fcb12d3

4: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Lego-Technic-Pneu ... 43a2728398
you'd need a different tank to use 100 psi and you'd have to modify switch and ram yourself. but yes they should work.
Could you tell me if there are any sets that do 100psi pneumatics like them and where to get them.
easiest thing to do is use a different tank (eg deoderant can, breath freshner) and just modify the pneumatics yourself. i could sell you some un modified pneumatics if you want. guides on how to modify can be found at:
http://www.techbricks.nl/
How do you use the tank from a deodrant can do you leave the contents in or take it out? if you take it out how do you put/make an end for it?
spray out contents, drill hole in for fill valve and another hole to go to system
could you do a vid on that do I know where to drill.
Also how do you fill the bottle.
sorry i did not make a vid today, was going to but it slipped my mind :crazy: spent the whole day working on heavyweight pneumatics. to fill the tank you screw on a car tyre pump and pump until it is at your desired psi (car tyre pump should have a gauge on it to show psi). the valve is only open when car tyre pump is attached.
ok understood that. I've also been busy
for antweight pneumatics im kinda using a straw and aftershave bottle :lol:
