how about "electronic leadscrew".
I have problems enough using my mobile phone,so an electronic leadscrew will bring no joy.
It is not a big job done often to manage the geartrain for screwcutting .
The possibility to change feed rate and revs during cut will be loading my simultaneous capacity and be nice to listen to with fresh batteries in hearing aid.
 
Labelling the Forward/Reverse Switch and Speed Pot. was quite fun. Dymo Label not preferred as they get smudged. Went to letter stamping on aluminium strips.After 4 days I managed to get some respectable labels stuck on. Nailing on not good looking and hard to align. Contact Glue is messy. Went over to double sided tape. Foto 1 not happy. Foto 2 OK for now.
DIY cutting aluminium blanks was another exercise done umptheen times to get best looking blank. A permanent stop/guide had to be made for the DIY Makita BandSaw to get very parallel strips to cut blanks. Blanks had to be hand finished so that stamped labels looked good.:wall:

Will take a lot of practice to make good labels.
