Lets hope they can source a 5mm wide MR85 bearing. If not, I will have to tweak the design for a narrower one

I have sent the design in to the manufacturer for a quote. When I get it back, I’ll let all who want in know the cost of their prototypes shipped.

_Fixed: Double wrap the string around the axle did the trick. Thanks everyone!_

Need some X-Brain help. I just picked this up but the auto-return is not working. Sleeps just fine but when you hear the click, it doesn’t come up automatically. Manual pull brings it up just fine and otherwise looks ok.

Any ideas to get this working? Or possibly a switch somewhere I’m missing?

Double wrap your string around axle sleeve.

try cleaning off the grease/oil from the rubber gasket on the plastic sleeve heck clean it all up. the rubber gasket side should fit very snug in the part with the teeth. add a bit of thick oil, grease or whatever to the metal axle where the plastic sleeve spins on. the string should be double wrapped.

that all should make it work assuming the spring mechanism works properly to disengage the teeth when it spins.
