Looks great! I am not sure if clamping the CIM into the vice is a great idea though. IIRC we came really close to bending one by doing that.

Also are your bearings freespin on a bolt or on a bearing? Miht be a dumb question but we were advised that having a bearing for the idler would be bad due to the lateral load placed from the gears turning. Is that a thing?
