Always some tweaking to get it how ya want. That's really nice having the extra valve using it for a quick hookup! Speaking of swing drive, what's a good low backlash gear motor (vertical mount) ? I ask as the revamp I'm doing has had a lot of slop left/right. I was wanting to get a gear head motor that has better planetary gears or tolerances . I thought about making the four mounting holes oblong so I could tighten up the clearance between ring gear and pinion gear. I hate that slop. And the gear motor that's in it isn't a planetary system but just some arranged gears inside the reduction housing. And I think I recall you saying you control some of the extend/retract speed with limiting how far the servo opens valve? Is that correct? Your almost ready to be able to sit back and enjoy some home-work, nice and toasty too!!!
