CSSOH’s LEGO Pneumatics Page
-Chio Siong Soh
This site is a veritable dossier on LEGO TECHNIC pneumatics, covering
pneumatic engines, motorized pneumatic compressors, valves, switches,
motions, and construction methods. Navigation among pages is quick and intuitive, the photography is superb, and the models are well streamlined.
Highly detailed step-by-step building instructions with notes are also
provided for many of the ideas presented here.
By the way, even if you’re not particularly fascinated by pnematics, you
should still visit the RCX Controlled Air Compressor Testor page, which describes and shows a working paper-roll pen plotter to test and record the effectiveness and properties of various pneumatic compressors. It’s quite
the scientific approach!
