Hey Robin, I heard the meeting up with my dad went smooth, thats great. =)
Enjoy the hell outta that setup! I know I did. I might suggest to put a red or green gel piece over the led countdown timer to dim it even further.
Blowfly, I designed and built a microprojector around those scanners it has a PCAOM on board as well. Sir Adam (300 evil) is wiring and putting an outer case on the system.
Adam, I hope those motors are the slowest motors you've ever worked with! I love how smooth and slow they are. .2 to .4 volts gets em pretty slow. I think I rebuilt those, tho I dont recall. I soaked the gearbox in alcohol to wash out the grease then hand oiled each gear with a light sillicon oil. It allows the gears to move more freely and theres less friction/adhesion to overcome at low voltages.
Thanks for the kind words guys!
I really appreciate the trades Ive done with everyone. Its good times!
Thank you again.
Will there be three phase!!!!
