    can you automate it to work with a sensor to keep it focused on the work while staying out of your way

    Great Build Clem. I have a similar use for an X,Y,Z stage to capture micro-photographs, so I was very happy to see your build. thanks DAB PS, I would like to see an automated soldering robot built out…

    I also was thinking of using it for focus stacking in macro photography!
