I need help designing a tiny lift similar to a car jack. Doesn't need to be exact this is just this idea I had.
I need some kind of platform to lift approx. 8" to 10" with the weight of an ounce or so. The load will be minimal such as two quarters or so.
this lift need to fit in a box 12"x16"x10". Slow speed may 1" a second. I need the entire lift enclosed in the box.
Current hardware
Sparkfun - Hobby Motor
Arduino Leonardo
Radio Shack Motor Driver
Popsicle Sticks
3/16" Wooden Dow
#8 Course 12" Threaded Rod
Could some one help me with a design? I need to keep the cost to a minimum but I can purchase a small stepper motor if needed.
