Thanks gang,
I have enyoyed and learned from all the feedback on the AC controller circuit for a water or slurry dispenser. I don't want to industrialize amateur telescope building. My problem is that I have a home-made grinding/polishing machine (like many of you guys) and sometimes I forget to add the few drops of water or polishing solution every few minutes. Perhaps I got distracted with my computer or with a minor family crisis . Then the polisher sticks to the glass and I have a big problem in my hands. I have chipped more than one blank and tore more than one good pitch lap on such occasions.
So it would nice to have a system that puts in the water or slurry for me if I forget to do it, and then I can go and log-on without having an explosion in the back of my mind.
That is my motivation in this project. Whatever comes out I will share with all of you, of course.
Regards,
Julio
