@toysareforboys thanks for that. I've been noodling that around for a bit. I picked up a stepper motor (no gearbox), and one of the automotive power seat motors that a number of guys have used for power feed, but still haven't hit on how I want to attack the next version.
The gearbox on the one you pictured looks suspiciously similar to the one that I trashed. I'm curious if 'all metal gears' includes brass (worm gear), which is what failed on my first version.
