Laugh Out Loud! :) Thanks for this! This is one for the
"Motor Madness" section of my "Blog" page, where I describe
such "drive mechanism delicacies" as a nichrome wire grid
melting its way through a block of ice, with the speed regulated
by controlling the grid current... and then there's the "taffy
drive", and the hot-wax drive, and... :) Just some semi-silly
thoughts to keep the creative juices flowing! :)

Thanks!
