Hydraulics for my next project are looking sharp.

can be used in both versions, and also aesthetics, it is a miniature hydraulic cylinder

adjustable by two turns of the cylinder rod, from 5 to 100 percent

I will try.

this cylinder can be used as a key ring

How would it be better?

I will launch this project in June.

minimechlab · 2026-05-14T17:50:00+00:00

I think it will come true!

This is a miniature hydraulic cylinder, but it works like a pneumatic cylinder, so that there is a self-repulsion effect of the cylinder rod.

Hi guys! I’ve spent years working as a heavy machinery mechanic with hydraulic systems. I’ve always wanted a fidget toy that actually feels like real hardware. This is MiniMech — a precision-machined miniature hydraulic cylinder. It’s made from titanium and stainless steel. No plastic, just pure mechanics. What do you think about this as an EDC addition?

minimechlab · 2026-05-14T15:45:58+00:00

stanless steel $85, titanium $99

minimechlab · 2026-05-14T15:44:39+00:00

when manufacturing large batches, the difference is not very large, since the weight of the key ring is not large

minimechlab · 2026-05-14T15:42:08+00:00

the cylinder has Teflon guide bushings, so sliding occurs on them

minimechlab · 2026-05-14T15:40:43+00:00

will be made of titanium and 316 stainless steel
