4.) Subtract that distance from 78" and that's the maximum height the pivot point can be at for the grabber.
5.) Add Pneumagics. Since the total rotation is ~90 degrees, the math for a bell crank is extremely simple.
6.) CAD mounts, fabricate them (CNC or any other plate-milling/cutting machine really helps, but isn't 100% necessary)
7.) Plan to get calibrations of angle on Thursday at the event
