Nice job on the mechanism! So it will raise one up and lower the other?

i wonder about using a rack gear with a cam follower. Then you drive one way to raise one and drive the other way to raise the other. When you raise one, the opposite one stays put since the cam is in the lower position.

could you do a quick post about the iterations you went through?

The power system might be overkill for your project, but it would make a good general purpose power system for other projects.

Doug,

Great progress on your project. Your spice lifter turned out nicely, a clever, but simple solution to the problem. Well done!
