Re: Use of Lead Screw
Mona Shores used a ball screw for their gripper: FP Motor, dismantled drill clutch, basic screw included in KoP; pulled a bike brake cable to run the gripper. Fast and simple. The clutch was what got me hyped!

If only my team could've used that instead of our closed-circuit air pump....
