Telescope focuser clutch idea needed

<< < (2/2)

efrench:
You may not need a clutch, just use a dual shaft stepper motor and add a handwheel to the back shaft.

p.s. With the stepper powered but disabled, you will probably be able to use the fine focus without the clutch.

I made a few prototypes by hand and then farmed my first big batch to a CNC shop....kinda cheating I know.
