Re: AndyMark Parts Feedback 2015

We used tons of AndyMark stuff this year. My only complaint was the shaft adapter to take the gear-motor shaft (10mm?) to half inch to drive a chain sprocket. We broke two...usually in match, rendering our lift inoperative. It would be nice to have a steel version...or better yet - make all the gear-motors have 1/2 hex shafts.

EDIT: Thought of another thing...The recesses for screw heads on the plastic belt pulley halves are too tight to get any kind of socket tool around the head - and the screws get too tight to drive with a slotted screwdriver.
