Really awesome project, can't wait to see the final version. Which linear actuator did you get exactly? I checked Pololu, but they only have a single actuator with 6'' stroke that moves at 0.5''/s and yours seems at least twice as fast. |

Their item number and description was 5-1778-A 6" STROKE 27.5 LB. 12 VDC LINEAR ACTUATOR $69.95 IIRC, it was 1.5"/s. I haven't found a source for ones that fast since, not that I've looked that hard. Look for one with a low weight rating. They're usually faster. |

A quick search on ebay turned up this one which is 2"/sec : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Linear-Actuator-6-inch-stroke-35-lbs-force-12VDC-Progressive-Automations-Inc-/281169914543?hash=item4177086aaf Followed that to their website, which has some crazy fast 9"/sec ones! http://www.progressiveautomations.com/actuators-tubular-high-speed-linear-actuator-c-68.aspx |

Thanks, stealing this! Also: BEAUTIFUL WORK all around. |
