any ways heres the latest and greatest.

Finally a real good look at a linkage manipulating a sliding pot... very illuminating. I like how you integrated the Saitek unt with the homebuilt stuff... good idea.
What did they charge you to make that plate?

the price of the plate was more than anticipated :o. Luckily I got my job to "pay" for it 8-).
I get full motion on the sliding pots (all the way up and all the way down), for both the handle and the pots. It is coming along...

Will they "pay" for mine...?
Actually, I could probably do the same thru my job... they often order custom plates... "Oh, I'll call in that order; give me the list..."
