Re: Synchronizing Two Servo Motors

I thought about sharing a belt but haven't been able to find a belt long
enough. Seems like it would be sort of a kludge anyway.

I guess if this has been discussed ad naseum and nobody has a ready
solution, then it probably has never gotten beyond the talking phase.
Apparently I'll have to build something from scratch (sigh).

I'll give it a few more days to see if someone comes up with something that
already works.
