Joe Johnson once said, the 229 gearbox looked like a man with googly-eyes (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25210). I think this one looks more like a guy with a moustache and big nose.

And then they were green, great job guys, Im just glad I didnt have to work in the high vent lab on these, I was much better working on other "projects" then playing with anodizing.

Well, it looks like it will definitely be three motors per box. My guess goes for 2 small CIMs and two Fisher prices with the AndyMark planetaries. Actually, the more I look at it, it seems as if the large CIM would fit in that large hole (and two mounting holes) in the middle. Hrrm, a 4 motor gearbox. /me wonders if it is for driving or for shooting.

I don't know what those slots and those lines of 4 small holes are for though.

The wheels need to be green anodized, and then assembled with yellow anodized spinners. ... and then, on the spinners, you can etch "JVN is a dweeb". That would be cool.


I like the way Andy thinks, to bad never did the wheels last year.
