Had to visit my local garage today and was given a 12 volt wiper motor with its mounting bracket.
Just the thing to motorize the lead screw on the 7x12, after striping off all the useless bits I started cutting down the bracket to make a mounting.
the standard spindle is a little short so I have cut the mounting bosses back 5mm to make the spindle more assessable.
Before going any further I need a gear that will mesh with the change gears, so I am making a cutter (N01 module) so I can make the gear.
Slowly slowly Brian.
