Compact Piston Conveyor Arm

Description
I've made one of the smallest and stable piston conveyor arms (That I've ever made).

I know that it's easier to just connect two pistons together but usually pistons get all wonky on you and smash about and fly off into space if you do that.
This is a very small design that I've used many times and hasn't broken.

Thanks to Ekuah and Major Templar for offering advice and ideas.

To see my other piston conveyor arm. In my opinion it looks a lot nicer and more like a machine, but it isn't as small as this design. It's slightly larger a a few directions by a block.

To see my other Space Engineer Workshop Items. The list is growing!


Thanks to Major Templar, I never thought of using conveyor blocks to connect the two pistons.

Yeh, much more compact!! And I agree re: the look of the conveyance system, but this is more useful for saving space.

@ハイロポン, Thanks, I'm glad you think so.

Of course it could be even smaller if you took away the conveyor tubes but I think conveyor tubes look much better than pistons.

The most compact version is brilliant. The use of blast doors as a casing was ingenius.
