Scorpion isn't Pneumatic!?

[Revsmin]

Nope, it's electric.

[PJ-27]

Impressive.

[mattsdragons]

ye, its an electric axe running off a lem 130 i believe, bloody powerful too

[RogueTwoRobots]

I believe it's the axe mechanism that used to be in Thor before that was changed over to pneumatics, so it's easy to understand why it's so impressive

[mattsdragons]

its a very good system yet i cant decide on what kind or axe mech to go for?

battle axe style, something like shunt or rack and pinion?

[jonny]

the thor mech went into hammer time that has now become corkscrew, whether it has wound up it scorpion i don't know. go for rack and pinion, easiest one to do imo

[mattsdragons]

my ram aint quite up too it, unless i get a rack and pinion made and welded on

[RogueTwoRobots]

Get a length of steel tube or H-beam, weld a chain to it, weld them to pneumatic ram, attach corresponding sprocket to axe and voila, a rack and pinion system. You can tailor the length of the tube/chain to suit your axe based on the stroke of the piston.

nice idea jamie, cheers
