Hi there,Great Instructable!! I learnt that:- Microsoft Visio is an alternative to AutoCAD (for accurate drawing and dxf capabilities),- A tub/shower flange is not just a plumber's item.I may have missed it out somewhere about the cylinders held with the leg. They fit like a glove but are they held with glue?Thanks and keep up with good work!

Can Vibration app do the same job?

Hi there,Very impressive design and simple approach! I hope IKEA learn from simplicity of your design.I have two suggestions:- Having two actuators connected in parallel so they can offer equal output = stability for your desk,- Do you really need Arduino? A magnetic reed switch or a long lever microswitch, connected to an analogue circuit should do the job.Thanks, and keep up with your design!

I am not sure about the issue of flex in the actuators, as IKEA do use them and there has been no known issue. A worm gear won't be able to turn a spur gear. I am more of mechanical mind and really liked your design. How about something similar to a crank frame as SeanB10 said, connected to a motor?.

Hi there,I totally agree with you. It was my confusion thinking there was L-profile under the U-profile. Once again keep up with good work. Simple engineering = big benefits. Any other solutions you have to share?

Hi there,This design caught my eye. It made me think how it works and then I decided to ask you more about it. I hope I am understanding the mechanism correctly.At the wall end, the U and L profile increase the thickness of the profile.At the bolt-head/nut/L profile, there is just L profile. When you tighten the nut, that would put pressure on this L profile. This plate is more likely to bend more that the thicker profile at the wall end.Thanks!

Very impressive and simple press drill!May I ask, what size of steel bracket did you use? Where would I source it as I am based in the UK? For stability and rigidity, how did you mount the drill with this bracket?Keep it up with the project!

Hi there,Very neat and clever!! By any chance, do you have Instructables for the CNC build? It would be nice if you can at least put a part list for the CNC.Thanks!

Hi there,This is an interesting project.I have two question to ask you. Can a reed switch (NC) be soldered to the speed dial button without the need of a relay?. Here is a link: http://www.maplin.co.uk/p/miniature-magnetic-conta... What other phones are possible to soldered, apart from Nokia.Thanks!

Hi there,This is an interesting project. May I suggest something simple?If you solder a reed switch (as suggested by rfitzgerald) directly to the speed dial button, will it work? You will avoid building all the circuit you have shown here.Thanks!

Very impressive!For the sides, you have used the wheels as a gauge to determine overall length and height proportions. How did you go about sketching for the front/rear?

Thanks for your info.I agree with your comment about 90 degrees between x and y axis in the Sketchup Pro.I experimented with a Hexagonal Prism. As we know it has the internal angles of 120 degrees. I took the known length as 280cm. The rest of the lengths should have been the same. Unfortunately, Sketchup Pro was not beneficial at all.Attached are 3 images with aligning x and y at various points..Thanks.Phot

Just curious to understand about the Red and Green dotted lines in Sketchup program, what if the item in the photo is an irregular shape? In other words, the Red and Green dotted lines are not aligning perpendicular. Will the measurements (or one of the lengths) turn out wrong when the item is scalled on a 3D program?
