    Looks like a fantastic idea - one of those "Why didn't I think of that ones". Are you going to wire it to a movable stop switch one the bed?

    I won't be liking or subscribing on YouTube as they deleted my channel for posting historical documentaries that oppose their political masters narrative.

    NortonDommi, thanks for the comments! Yes, I can use an electrical or mechanical limit switch system, or I can use only the on / off switch. When I post the video of the device working, I believe I will answer your questions. Big hug!

    Interesting.
    Can you provide the mfg & model number of the solenoid used. I'd like to see the specifications.

    Nice idea. Looks like a solenoid off of a starter!

    Thanks for the interest rayh__! The code I have is 933A081039 BOSCH, but I don't know if it is universal. It is an automotive solenoid found in scrap metal.

    That's right, it's a car starting solenoid. Mmwmkravchenko, thanks for watching!

    The solenoid works in the same way as the car: carcass (-) + line 15 (+) = retention. Smaller pin (-) + line 50 (+) = overheating (caution).

    Thread in reverse with the tool mounted on center upside down. That way it starts at the left and finishes out in the air on the right - no worries about crashes. Set a stop at your starting point, return the carriage to the stop, roll the chuck by hand until the mark lines up and engage, bring your tool in for the next cut and let 'er roll.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.
