I have to make a hydraulic robot arm that can lift a cup of water up and down 8 inches, pour it and move it left and right 8 inches. Only problem is the assorted syringes we are required to use has a length of at most 6ish inches. How do I make it push farther and lift higher. BTW I can only use 6 syringes max
