I've convinced him to make us one prototype for free to see how it works.

As someone who tried this all ready, I REALLY hope this guy can make them, but everyone I talked to said the same thing until they actually saw the gear. The problem lies in that it is a complex gear with multiple pitches and a mix of straight and worm gears.

I'd be willing to supply the test gear if I can get the free one or even just pay shipping for it. I even have the gear all ready pulled out. I do have to have my gear returned though (it took me a couple months to get it back from the last guy).

Drop me a PM if interested.

I guess I wouldn't care. My originals have lasted 8 years. I just want to be able to replace the gears for under $50, rather than spend $300 on the whole motor.

My motor just went out, but the gears are fine.

The link apparently had a time limit. But the plastic resin can withstand temps of over 300 degrees. The only thing he is concerned about is the amount of torque it will be under.
