A machine that counts and sorts set quantities of parts into individual cups to replace a human [me] doing this repetitive task. Machine is automated. Once turned on it will count the predetermined set of small nuts (#440, #632, and #832) until completion. This machine is very early in design and inherently also very time consuming to develop. Just sharing my ideas to help other DIYers that may have the same redundant task of counting parts.
Weighing parts (the crimp connectors) is always an option, but I am trying to automate the task as an end goal, so counting seemed like the correct first step. It's a learning process.

Update! Version 2.0 here:    • Automatic Small Part Counting Machine...
