Inflating the Ringers

There are lots of ways to inflate the ringers, but I forgot the air mattress pump at home and didn't want to subject the team to mass huffing and puffing... and didn't have a nice connection to fit up to the shop's compressor system... so I was stuck.

Then I pulled a piece of tubing off one of the cylinders on an old robot... fired up the pneumatics system and stuffed the end of the tube into the valve on the ringer. A perfect... albeit a bit tight... fit.

The robot can inflate the ringer. How cool is that?

Jason
