Thanks Robert. It was your tutorial that gave me the idea but I couldn't
remember whose it was or where to find the site. These timers are a little
different to the one you show and I don't think the same method of coulpling
the motor to the gearbox will work. It might though. I just need to play with
the parts a bit more and see what inspiration arrives.

I've taken apart a few different timers now. Some are definitely more useful
than others.

30 RPM is considered about right for a walker, right?
