No, he's a SPAMmer hijacking the thread to SPAM his product, but making

To all ... I'm not a spammer or a product promoter. I also don't expect
the same person is still seeking an answer, yet many people browse forums
looking for ideas to solve problems, even if initial posts are older. I
should note that multiple people here saw and responded even if in a mean
spirited fashion.

I simply ran across the thread doing a search for similar issues. I built
the motorized component to drive the crank handle shaft on my DP. I
created an account to depict what works great for me as I thought it might
provoke useful thought for anyone coming across the string.

I am truly sorry that you are such jaded and suspicious people.

Sorry about that. I personally did not think it was spam, but RCM gets lots of off topic posts and a fair amount of spam, so I am not surprised that some thought that it was spam.

Looks like a good solution for raising and lowering with an auxilary table covering the original table.

Nah, we're just fun-loving curmudgeons, for the most part. BUT, it is
quite often a spammer or unnice person answering old posts, so we're
cautious.

I thought it was interesting.

Hell, I have unfinished projects that are that old.

And BTW, I just bought a basket case 20" Jet DP, mostly there. Notable missing is .... The table elevation mechanism! No rack, no crank.

So I am going to have to fabricate something.
But first I need to rejoin the halves of the post, which were sawn in two, and not in a straight manner.

So I am going to have to fabricate something.

Simple: a cable over a pulley to a counter weight equal to the table
weight. Fast adjustment, but not easily precise.

Powered: A threaded rod driven by a motor (e.g., the OP's). Or, the
cable-and-counterweight with the cable wrapped once or twice around a
driven drum. Either could be variable speed,

Challenging: mill a rack and pinion to original design.

I'll not convert mine, but if I had to, it would be a welcome challenge.

Have fun.

I love rec.crafts.metalworking and sci.electronics.repair, but many of the folks in here are ultra-conservative ex-construction workers, etc... and many people here are retirees and are used to life out on the range or in the forest and don't get out much, so talking to other people here in an upwardly mobile open-minded manner is normally ... lets just say ... a bit out of the question. Here.

Jack Daniels Fishing Story

I went fishing this morning, but, after a short time, I ran out of
worms.

Then I saw a cottonmouth with a frog in its mouth.

Frogs are good bass bait.

Knowing the snake couldn't bite me with the frog in its mouth, I
grabbed it right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait
bucket.

Now the dilemma was how to release the snake without getting bit. So,
I grabbed a bottle of Jack Daniels and poured a little whiskey it its
mouth. Its eyes rolled back, and it went limp.

I released the snake into the lake without incident and carried on
fishing, using the frog.

Not long after, I felt a nudge on my foot. It was that damned
snake...with two more frogs.

Life is good.
