Thanks for the support!
Togoster - your senses are pretty close, other than the Rubiks cube... but I did recently pick up juggling. I grew up working on cars and dirt bikes; my work background is in engineering and manufacturing.
TexasKZ - It's been a great learning experience. I plan to keep iterating the switch design. These toggles are big, but rated for 15amps. The thought being it might simplify wiring by minimizing relays. If that's not stable, I'll move to relays with smaller switches and a housing with some curves.
slmjim - I really appreciate it! I won't make the Kickdown this year, but certainly an interesting road trip to think about.

Just stumbled onto this thread.
I was looking through the Gallery, and Grant's bike caught my eye.
Hadn't seen this thread in the past.
Nice work being done.
Any updates?
