A lego pneumatic arm that has:
-5 pneumatic cylinders
-Over 15 feet in tubing
-5 pneumatic switches
-1 power functions battery box
-1 power functions medium motor
-1 power functions pole reverser
2 of the pneumatic pistons (arranged in double cylinder set up) are used to raise and lower the arm at the base, 1 is used to raise the "elbow" up and down, 1 is used to tilt the claw, and 1 is used to open and close the claw. The claw rotates but it is not shown doing that in the video. 4 pneumatic cylinders are used to control the cylinders. The 5th one can be used to let all of the air out of the tanks or to not allow any air to be pumped into the tanks.
