What kind of drive train? Any bevels or worms in it, or just spurs and sprockets/pulleys?

edit: is it this one?

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
