We have to clean up every night (except Fridays), too. That's one of the things that makes the cart so nice... EVERYTHING has to be taken out (from our closet on the second floor) and brought down to the tech shop (in the sub-first floor, 1.5 stories down), and EVERYTHING has to be put back. The cart goes everywhere with us: to off-season events, to regionals, to and from our work space....

So as a follow up to my original suggestion, first buy a Banebots P60 and then DIY the output shaft.

You should reconsider. In industry, planetary gearboxes are the go to gear boxes for high torque applications. The versaplanetary's load carrying capability is only limited by the aluminum hex shafts ultimate strength. It is stronger than its spur gear counterparts.

It has larger output bearings and a 28 tooth 0.5 module spline that has incredible load carrying capability.

Two AndyMark or VexPro hex hubs and six 10-32 screws.

I'm sorry if this is off topic, but what is this magic cart you speak of?
