Hi everyone,
I need some help as my knowledge is limited in this department. What I'm trying to accomplish is make and egg turner or rocker for an incubator. Picture a kids seesaw with a pivot in the center that rocks up and down. I have a small AC gearmotor reclaimed from a microwave turntable that is attached to a type of cam linkage to make the seesaw go up and down. What I need to know is is it possible to attach a couple of micro switches to stop the motor at the top and bottom of the stroke. This will also be attached to a timer to start at specific times. Any help greatly appreciated.
