for lego? why not make your own? how small does it need to be? and what exactly do you want it to do? i can work on designing one if you want.. cant guarentee itll be small tho.. or you can search for days on google for pics of a decent looking one and just copythat design..

Why do you need to build one? Lego already has them premade?

Clothespin or a C-clamp will work eh?

Wouldn't a directional switch/valve work? The one you would use for the lego pneumatics to change direction of a cylinder.

those are for manual applications. he wants it electric right?
making a compact one is quite hard..

OO you are looking for solenoid actuated valves? Are you looking for 2/3-way valves or 4 way valves?
