I built the switcher last night. It works totally awesome. It’s the best
design I’ve seen and built so far. The only problem I found is the motor
gives off a lot of torque when the switch is done being switched. Sometimes
the motor would pull up and stop switching. I braced it the best I could
without it looking like a big blob and it still pulled up sometimes. I don’t
know if someone can figure something out.
