Re: Worm gears
If there were an FRC award for posting the most useful ideas, images and videos on Chief Delphi over the past three years, Jim, your team would have to be at the top of my list of nominees.

This is another great piece of info.

P.S. Those gears must be tough... one of my garage doors had been a bit sticky lately when it was coming down and when I checked it out, it turned out that the spring on one side had come disconnected when a fastener failed. It must have made a bang when it went, but the opener just kept chuffing right along. A quick fastener replacement (er... "UPGRADE PART" to use FRC speak) and some retensioning and it was as good as new... never missed a beat.
