Thanks Rodger,

Those look *awesome*. Would probably never need replacement. :-)
Looking at the picture in the catalogue though, they may not have a flat
spot on the shaft for the set screw of the gear. Not sure if this is
really necessary, and one could probably be cut with a dremel tool or
bench grinder. Might be worth the trouble...
