    Flipping in a cabinet is a huge milestone. Congratulations!

    Man. I’ve said out before but that ball lock is so sweet. Wouldn’t mind a breakdown video of that design and how it works. I’m guessing it’s a stepper motor?

    Wow. That was fast! Thanks for that. Are you using any homing switches or anything? How does the mech know it’s in the correct position?

    Quoted from Ohmbrew:

    It's a servo so it has its own internal positioning sensor. It's usually a potentiometer/variable resistor and so doesn't need any homing on power up.

    Interesting. I’ve got an idea two homebrews from now that I think that would work great for. Might bug ya about it again in five years haha.
