Printed dolly and the threads work nice

A project log for xDSL lightning defeat device

Make a device that automatically properly disconnects my line from the DSL modem when a thunderstorm approaches.

Printed the dolly today, the threads needed some force the first time but now runs really smooth.

The entire project is now classified as a stepperdriven linear actuator opereated high voltage switch.

What is left now is the rest of the assembly, PCB and function definitions.

I want it to disconnect if the mains power go out. I want battery backup and a charging circuit.

And of course it will disconnect when sensing thunderstorms on the radio, stay disconnected for a set amount of time after last radio activity, same with powerloss.

I also want a couple of buttons to override. Maybe throw in a display to display timers and lightningcounts.

I want to cram all this into a Attiny 84 or something, use some MOSFETs to power my overpowered stepper motor.
