Need large piston for small ships so that we can make extendable welders/grinders

I am not from Keen.

What does a large piston provide that several smaller pistons do not?

A lot of items can only pass through large conveyor ports on small ships. It's why there's both a rocket launcher and a reloadable one; the normal one is much smaller but needs to be loaded by hand.

Its in the title. Small ship welders/grinders can only be fed via medium size conveyors

I really hope the coming industrial update will bring this! We'll be all happy pandas.

Would love to see this too!

Currently working around it by using the 3x3 hinges and creating scissor lift like constructions, supported by pistons of course to allow precise movement.

Also, this seems to be the same request as this two year old one: https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/pc/topic/suggestion-large-conveyor-version-of-small-ship-piston
