This is exactly the kind of input I was hoping for! Safety features: Right off the bat there was going to be a fuse, if the resistance exceeded the amperage level, POP! Also, I had given thought to some kind of "shear pin" setup on the shaft, but that would be a lot of trial and error to design right. Also, built-in emergency kill switch, dead-man style. I also have a treadmill motor, complete with speed control. However, the motor does have a very large, heavy flywheel. In case of emergency, cutting the power (either automatically with the fuse or manually with the kill switch) would still allow the momentum of the flywheel to continue to turn for a little while. I'm planning on taking the flywheel off and replacing it with something lighter. The depth adjustments will be on the flywheel, holes drilled in increments and threaded for a bolt with a knob head. At least that's the general idea. The design I have in mind is similar to the "toolbox" fuck machines, and will have a removable shaft that fits inside the box, probably threaded sections so the shaft can be lengthened or shortened depending on circumstances. I also plan on adjustable legs on the side that the shaft exits for variable angle. I've read in several sites that the electric wheelchair motors are ideal for these machines, as long as you have the proper speed controller and power converter. But they're not easy to come across outside of Ebay. And some have suggested windshield wiper gearmotors, but I've found those to be seriously underpowered. You can do a wired adjustment motor, I've got a few ideas there. That's much later in the refinement stage. I never would have thought of using an ironing board. Stroke of genius with materials at hand! I'd already decided to go with the Vac-u-lock, it seems to be an "industry standard" and pretty reliable. And with the threaded setup I've planned, I can always swap out the Vac adapter with a flat plate with straps for traditional dildos or no straps for the suction type. Or get real diabolical and bolt up a dual penetrator.......
