I followed Dr Joe's method and used a planet from a second stage. I was tempted to run the 2nd stage missing a planet and still may try it after the initial testing is completed.
This design is flexible in that the transmission adapter has a lot of room to add countershafts. I could have designed it for the CIM and added more support between the transmission adapter and the motor plate. As it is the only parts that have 'real' drawings are these two main pieces. The clamp collar is held on with two 1/4-20 bolts but I think I like the OCCRA solutions and will replace the lower section with a block. I will test first 'cause you cannot learn unless you break something first!
BTW,I am looking for some suggestions on shifting mechanisms
