Wow, almost seems unfair to have that many nice people in one place. Isn't it possible to overload on cool? - Molten [more]

Re: pic: Break The Chains

If you ever decide to make this again, use WCP gears. They're a ton lighter than the steel ones you're using. 10lbs is heavy for a gearbox, and I feel like aluminuim gears could lighten it significantly.

It definately has that sexy factor. I love the ability to withstand a chain break too. Personally, the weight outweighs the robustness in my mind.

This design reminds me a bit of a 448 module from AM
