That's clever. I like the innovation of baking the sleeve to create a bellows. I would never have thought that a rubber tube would extend so much, is it just ordinary latex tubing?

Where will we get all the materials mentioned here?

Hello, how can I bend the muscle? Like fingers?

[@georgegreen3672]

aeration extending cannot produce strong pushing force, while aeration shrinking can produce strong pulling force.
