Re: Hypothetical Situation - Stairs

i explored the idea of using a screw drive with first, the main problem is a lack of power, unless the screws were made of rollers, like a mechanum wheel, they require a tremendous amount of torque to move. i looked at ice fishing augers as a supplier for the screws, they are long and fairly perfect.
