"Necessity if the Mother of Invention" Your setup does everything that a WeMacro or StackShot digital motorized focusing rail would do for you. The setup is a testament to your mechanical turn of mind.


AMen!!
And a shallow pocket book
As soon as the price of steel gets real I will be building a more stable table, these metro shelves wobble too much when I make adjustments, no loss in IQ just aggravating .

No automatic its all push button using offline controllers, the thinnest "slice" I can do is .0025"
The math involved in doing extreme macro is way beyond me.
