Looking good Matt,

I don't like where your switch is though, too hard to get to with canopy on. If you are going to use a switch (I don't use one) then the stock position is in front of the motor.

Cheers,

I agree with Tom about the switch. The other trick is to use your dremel and a polishing wheel to polish to a fine sheen the pinion on the motor that touches the secondary gear. This will keep the heat down a decent amount and make the secondary single gear last longer.
