  • what happends when the acutor reaches its full stoke ??? does it just stop working or did u have to install relays ??

  • Now THAT's an ingenious use of stuff laying around the house. The antenna rotor idea is one I have been thinking of using as well for 2-axis as well as 1. Just strap it down in a windstorm, lol.

  • Good work! would be a good time lapse video to show it in action.

    Any wharf, I help you make a video using a webcam such that ok?

  • good job. a man after my own heart for sure. you even have the elevation angle adjustment, but if you were to by that 3 position chair retail it would cost $200. Hope you found one that had the cushions wore out.

  • where do you bought that motor?

  • very cool!!

  • Do you have schematics and a parts list for this?

  • I agree with Josiah - the chair addition is classic garage genius.

  • You used a chair? Brilliant! Very cool.

  • what is the actuator hooked up to? What is it called?
