caffel is an unknown quantity at this point
Drill motors

We liked them although we did encounter problems.
1. the mounts didn't keep the entire assembly together from end-to-end as the drill handles do (clutch causes separation)
2. the mounts didn't keep the last output section from spinning and breaking the bayonet mount connection between gearbox sections.

We used them with the FIRST gearbox and misalignment coupling. We found these were helpful and they did not break.
