Yep, ours ran much more smoothly too after some tweaking. I was just saying that I think the alignment and spacing issues are separate from the double-D issues. Solving one won't fix the other.
An earlier estimate from Dr. Joe was that 350 in-lbf, in repeated, high-cylce loading was a safe estimate for the amount of torque the plate could see before a problem occurs.

The programmers tend to get less credit than they deserve, but the robot wouldn't run if we weren't there. :) - IMDWalrus [more]
