Chuck,
Lets try for one thing at a time. I have given the motor drive cover
idea some thought though. I think they might be a little fragile for
molding however. My plan for the TTL connectors is to machine up a
couple, refine the design and evaluate moldablility. Then we can
discuss how many I can make. I don't want to sound too negative, but my
wife is Due with our second in March and my time is not my own anymore.
I hope everyone has a happy holiday.
