    Hi Everyone:

    Been a LONG time since I have posted as I have been reading all the documents and posts and feel I have some good knowledge now.

    Have also been doing a lot of testing of various hardware ideas with X-Sim and learning its power.

    I did purchase a second stage sim system from SimXperience: if you have the $$---buy it, very good platform, very well made, excellent service.

    It’s been great for me as I sue it as a test bed for my ideas, which include hardware of various kinds.

    I have posted a paper here that I found: very good theory if you want to build a linear actuator that is belt driven, lots of good formulas.

    OK, back to work now…
