Getting this thing all wired up for Indy. Figured it'd be nice to have adjustable limit switches to make setting everything up faster.

Pfb,

If you could get a short little video or a few more pics, I would really like to see more of the screw drive and dump design.

Tanks,

Jim

Sure thing. Let me get it all wired up and I'll show and explain it's operation.

That's a nifty little screw drive set-up, Nate. I like that. Good idea with mounting the limit switches, although I think I'd use at least two screws on each limit switch plate. That way the plates can't get skewed at an angle and mess up your stop points.

Thought about it but it gets plenty tight enough. It's only the feather-light pressure of the switch that it supports anyway.
