Nov 9, 2015 at 19:27 comment added ssaltman In fact, now that some pencil has been applied to some graph paper, this solution, combined with the nautilus gear the is more elegant. Nautilus gear lifts the plunger. Remote switch turns motor on, turning gear, lifting plunger off contact switch. Falling plunger lands on contact switch turning off motor. Thanks!
Nov 9, 2015 at 19:06 comment added ssaltman yes, I like this very much.I was actually planning on using a nautilus gear to lift and drop the plunger. However, this is an elegant solution though it requires an additional contact switch, but removes the need for the relay. I will mull on both.
