Probably the easiest way would be to mount the pot to a plate somewhere,
stick a pulley on the shaft, and use the heaviest Spider Wire fishing
line you can find to move the pulley. It would need 2 arms on the stick,
each the same length and distance from the pivot. Attach the wire to one
arm, then wrap it wound the pulley a few times, then to the other arm.
Put a tiny turnbuckle at one end to tension it and it should work
perfectly for years.
