For a while, I used halls for the quadrature, and optical for index but 
index is hall now too.  Index disk came loose and sawed up the opticals, 
so I put in a hall and glued a screw to the side of the drawbar cap, 
works fine. But the quad are now coming from an Omron 1000 ppr encoder 
on the back of the motor.  With some hal magic to keep track of the 
scale according to which gear its in.  Sweet!  And stable as can be with 
a P-Gain of 20 or more.
