Poofs Gearbox of Doom

I was looking at some of my photos from Atlanta and I found this:



I had a couple of questions:

-How were you able to get your parts Anodized and was it expensive?
-Where did you get the gears from?
-Where did the 7068 aluminum come from?

Great gearbox, absolutely amazing. I had another question, would it be worth it to add another motor to any gearbox to give it more torque and pushing power. Maybe a fisher price??? I was planning on making a really light two speed gearbox and a crazy four speed, only using the four speed if the game requires three or four speeds and to show off in the offseason (almost done with it).
