Hey Terry ,good to here that your starting your build,good luck with it.
Do you have any idea what the overall wieght will be of the model ,will it be built from all steel.Would give us a idea of how much torque you will need.I would say the most torque you can get from a 12volt gearmotor.
Here's one from robotmarket place for example ,its showing 370 oz of torque at 12 volts .
