Ric, I’d love to see the drawings and pic of the set up installed if you have time.
Thanks

This will make movement easier but it will never be fast and never be the tool you use to de-power quickly, the main sheet is best for that. What I like best about Stan’s invention is the ability to pull the pins from the ends and swing the traveler out of the way or take it off completely in seconds. I designed the ends and had them fabricated out of Delrin at a local machine shop.  If anyone is interested I can probably dig out the drawing.
