Probably 100mm. > One wire? How hard is that to handle in a .hal file? Very. It would need significant changes to the software encoder counter, but missing-tooth index isn't a terrible idea for some applications. In practice when the idea was first used it wasn't actually a missing tooth on the starter ring-gear it was a slightly shorter tooth, and that is something you could probably afford to do to a lathe bull-gear (maybe not full width) -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1916 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
