Last Saturday there was a pneumatics training at SMC pneumatics. They supply all the kits with the pneumatics equipment, and this year there's supposed to be $1000 worth of equipment in the kit. They said that each kit will have an air tank that can be pressurized to 120 psi but a regulator on it to keep it at 60 psi. There will be some vacuum equipment and other goodies and supposedly enough air to last a two minute round if 'used wisley.'
: Okay, I heard a rumor, too. The pneumatics equipment and pressure may be upgraded this year, to possibly 100 psi. And they may be able to create a good vacuum for a sustained period of time, say perhaps 2 minutes. And we may be able to release the vacuum, and maybe eject a projectile.
