well the second one is to some extent related...

First of all, it shows how the first one could be simplified (lol BTW that system of cams is soooooooooooo JSRish :D )

Secondly, time delay relays have been discussed a while ago and I found this vid so I wanted to show it

It doesn't look like it would make it any simpler... :shock: I would use a lever with a flat surface on one end to crush the can :D

BTW, for those who don't know, the second one is simultaneously opening and closing multiple carburetors. I had a motorcycle once, a Honda Valkyrie that had a 6 cylinder engine and 6 seperate carbs to go along with it. A device similar to this was used to sychronize all of the carbs.

I guess I can say the same thing about my golf ball gun lol.
But the can crusher wasn't worth doing in the first place. :D

the complexity better be intentional, you might as well throw in a robotic arm and a swinging mallet in there too

uhmm but it is pneumatic... that's the point... the cams actuate a couple of electronic switches and valves as they turn

I might have posted it earlier but it's so cool that it's worth seeing

Something is coming to mind that involves golf balls, five hundred yards, high powered rifles, hamsters, propane and a light switch.
