andy - thank you.  I am going to have to draw up the 200 tooth outside gear
and see how that works..  (the diameter of the 200 tooth would have to be
the same diameter as the 202...)   What is nice about what I have right now
is the pitch of the 2 gears is the same - so you can engage a lot of
teeth.    (like if you cut the inside flex gear it would wrap all the way
around the outside gear and mesh)
