Looks like a pair of AndyMark planetaries, most likely 2-3 stage GEM500s. Run through a Toughbox, too--that's kind of an interesting setup. Stock Tougbox ratio or custom?

[ttakashima]

Those Gem 500s are huge, 2 wont fit on a toughbox like those 2 are, unless the box is somehow elongated or the GEMs are cut down. Those look a little smaller, kinda like the FP ones you get on AM. But the ones pictured are fully covered. Maybe an added sleeve?

[EricH]

I dunno--the FP ones don't have as long of a sleeve as these do, and there's what looks like an AM sticker on the side of one of them. Might be a stacked set of something like http://www.andymark.com/ProductDetai...ctCode=am-0823 and http://www.andymark.com/ProductDetai...ctCode=am-0301.

Also, I'm pretty sure the GEM500s are about the same size as CIMs, and two CIMs fit on a Toughbox with a little room to spare.

Those are the old style AM planetaries. The housing is different but the guts are the same.

Andy Mark is correct

No gears, just belts.

I forgot where, most likely Andy Mark.
