1. I could live with that- I have perfect the art of custom motor mount fabrication a la hacksaw and files

2. That would be a problem. I could drill out (or use a lathe) on some 3mm 32p gears, but it i wanted MOD1, I would have to go to SPD for some custom items. Hmm, thats a pain... why cant life be simpler? **grumble grumble**
