I would say that it's been getting popular day by day for a heck of a
long time. If it weren't for hydraulics we'd be in a very different place today... just think, backhoes actuated by huge leadscrews and motors, garbage trucks compacting their load with enormous air-cylinders, large gorillas lifting pallets instead of forklifts... |

One can spend amazing amounts of money doing it, too. A hose that cost
me $22 from Northern Tool was quoted at $110-$120 by several local shops. One of them looked at it and said he couldn't believe they made a profit since it was the same type of hose and fitting he used. Of course they can make up whatever you need while you wait, to get your $100,000 machine running again today. I am learning to recalculate working stresses on the fly while looking over a dealer's pile of orphan cylinders and valves. The cylinders for the front end loader I built last fall cost $15 - $20 each. jw |
