The telescoping is powered by a van door motor.... and there is more to the claw than you can see....


EDIT:

thanks for all the replies... with the hook in the pic we can grab 1-2 tetras at a time but probably just one at a time because stacking them on the ground then picking them up together takes just as long as just stacking them one after the toher

Thanks for the comments on the linear bearing it was a pain to machine (me and the user named Alekat made it) because TECHNICALLY we had a tolerance of 0" however the 2" box is actually 1.997" and the .875 bearings are actualy .874 so that gave us some leeway
You should see this thing in action it is SCARY SCARY how silent it is !!! its like some kind of monster raising its arm from behind you hehehe... like in the movies silent but deadly...
