Apparently I must have skipped that class. A simple search for
brushed motor drivers
should have turned up the ones I bought, but didn't.

On this side of the pond, I've settled for 2 of the Starrets that sell 
for around $200 in a wooden box.  A bit big though, 10" long. No problem 
seeing a piece of newsprint under one end. Plus I've another with a 
rotating center cell so I can measure how far off level to a small 
fraction of a degree. Between them they get the job done. I got them 
from thrift stores at decent if not outstanding prices. First had a 
rusted bottom, and had been adjusted by an idiot but the other one was 
pristine and very well adjusted.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
