I bought all the gears but the two smaller pinions are cut from 12'' pcs of gear stock so I can make them the way I want. I think I've mentioned in the past but I think there's around $100+ buying the worm & the other gears. I even put a tiny thrust bearing on the end of the worm. Right now I'm working on the mount for the motor I'm going to try. After testing it and getting a RPM of the winch drum, I running about 30ipm and that should take only 6-7 minutes to boom up or down.
