Re: pic: Ahhhh, that's better.

Ahhhh Steampunk drivetrain. Love the gears and the different sizes.

I was pleased to hear that it's a custom frame supporting them, so there is the quiet whirr of fully meshed gears vs mismatched gears or chains rolling around. So you've built the Rolls Royce of 6 wheel drive.

Can you say a few words about lubrication at the shafts and at the gear faces?
