My mitre saw has a brake, just wondering what thats all about. I have two functions done on the new arm and the actuator coasts to a stop witch makes it difficult to control. The arm is not under load in these early tests. Maybe when the arm is under load it will be better. I could put a speed control on the power feed line and the actuators would still be powerful enough. The actuator is a bit fast but as I said with no load. I think I will do some weight lifting tests tomorrow.</div><div>Hank</div></div></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div><span>_______________________________________________</span><br><span>Personal_Submersibles mailing list</span><br><span><a href="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org">Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org</a></span><br><span><a href="http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles">http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles</a></span><br></div></blockquote></body></html>
