I offered that as a realistic possibility. It is.
Not everyone in this forum is able to reach for
a shaft encoder off the shelf. If you are able
to do so that's swell.

I didn't say it was not possible. But rather was
contrasting the pros/cons of the available approaches.
You are obviously quite proud of your handiwork and
I did not intend to pooh-pooh your implementation.
On a general note, I'd like to point out the "homebrew"
nature of this group. The intention here is to exchange
ideas and resources with the intent of finding viable
solutions within the means of the "midnight engineer".
I think most here would agree off-the-shelf
preengineered components when available make
for a fine solution. But this is not always feasible
and perfectly suitable homebrew approaches do exist.
Finding them is the collective goal here.
