Re: Flywheels achieving linear motion
Ah, I've got an idea! You could just use the HotWheels priciple. Have a spinning flywheel with some sort of grippy surface on it, even knurled slightly. Then have it spin a bit below 2" above a slide table. Then just slide the bar into it! Along the table. However, unless you like blood, you will want some sort of very strong stop behind the bar to prevent it from going AWOL.

I got to talk with Mr. Flowers briefly last year. I told him that I had wanted to be part of FIRST since about 1980. It was nearly a quarter-century later when my son entered high school and I joined the TechnoKats as a mentor. - Alan Anderson [more]
