Not saying actuator wires, though. I'm saying wires attached to actuators - the actuators pull the wires, and instead of pushing back, to do the opposite movement you pull the opposite. Except that I can see actuators being a bit harder to use, so I was thinking more along the lines of a stepper motor assembly driving a bar (not unlike bicycle brakes) or a pulley (not unlike securing cord on flatbeds) that would pull the steel wire. Though I'm glad I actually did figure out something that actual, certified engineers have been using. Makes me feel clever.
