I'm at the point where my project (http://www.cnczone.com/forums/vertic..._retrofit.html) is functional and I'm looking to make it easier to use.
First on the list will probably be a pendant / control panel of some sort but I've been thinking about putting some kind of linear encoder on the knee so when I crank it up and down the controller knows where it is. Seem reasonable?
I'm sure someone has done this before but I searched and didn't find anything.
