I am a mentor and just trying to figure out how you held the motor in position until you were ready to fire the next shot.

The switch is just a limit switch that tells the system when to stop turning the motor. What actually stops the axle from backdriving is the wrench in that picture. It is just a standard ratcheting wrench, and you can see it in the picture right below the pointer.
