I am having the hardest time coming up with a gearbox that allows a 90 degree

one, the gears skip, or simply snap.  Does anybody have a small, simple, home
made version that can tolerate a lot of torque?  Even the lego one, offered in
the old Off roader (blue not motorized, set) cracks the gears.  Help!

Thanks

Use the 12 tooth and the 20 tooth bevel gears together, like this
