@ Madda: Thanks! The most suitable radio I know of is the Brixlcontrol.
@ D8R: Having put in the order in November (some years ago), I also considered it a Christmas package, but I had to wait until late February, before I got the parts
. The frame, front axle, drawbar, circle and moldboard designs, i.e. almost everything involving plates except the covers, were practically complete before I started cutting.
@ Jens: An extra valve for each cylinder's float was the first thing I had in mind, that's the reason I considered it a separate function. The
"SVAB" joystick solution for Volvo has separate buttons for float.
Considering the slow speed, infrequent use and the fact that the gears for the circle are about module 4 it seems to me that the laser cut surface is smooth enough. When hand-cranking the 6-teeth wheel the 56-teeth one turns OK (but not perfect) without to much mesh play. I hope some running in will further improve it.
