Generalbrando,

Don't sell yourself short, you can build them just like that. We took the design and modified it to use off the shelf gears from Martin Gears. The only parts that took time to machine were the hex driveshaft and dog/mates. These could be easily farmed out to a local machineshop as we did for a very, very low fee when the shop was told what they were for. The tranny has proved to be robust, and reliable. The 2003 modifications make it even smaller and lighter. There are also some other designs in the white pages for shifters
