Bolted it all up. Its been running at about 400 rpm input, and a turn every 4 seconds for output for longer than the other 2 together. But its crackling and stalling, too it apart, flexgear is good, but I think it doesn't have quite enough hop over clearance. The next on on the printer should be a few thou smaller. This will also get me into it far enough to refresh that lumpy bearing.
