I dug out a NOS air powered linear slide made by Festo.

The traveler runs on a linear way (ball bearings) and has a total

Its designed to be operated at high speed by air.

Entire unit is about 10" long, about 3.5" tall

Well, **** YEA! The 10" will be used to automate a hand-operated wire

operation for over 40 years but I never thought of how to automate it
'till I saw that picture. I can't think of what I could possibly use
the long one for...let me ask Roger when he gets home. Thanks! You
still have my UPS number? If not I'll send it tomorrow.

Resend the UPS number. Ill have to go back into the stacks o' stuff
and see what the other one is.
