Hi Erick,
Oh, that's a good idea, a piece of hard plastic tube glued on to the shaft. Oh well, I can fix that up later, its working fine for now.
One thing I should have mentioned is the lack of "freewheeling" on the focuser once the electric motor is fitted. There is no clutch mechanism as far as I can tell, so when it is fitted, the manual knob on the right is VERY stiff and I am reluctant to use it manually so as to avoid damaging anything.
