But wait!! I'm at work!! There should be a digital camera floating around here
somewhere...

and a little movie seeing it in (very noisy) action--

so there you are.
Now I just have to build something with it
Things of note--the motor itself--very heavy.
The battery box--8 studs by 11 studs--pretty odd dimensions.
the motor I have is different than in the picture on the box--I have a plastic
axle holder whilst the pic shows a metal one (and a few other differences in the
actual motor housing)
Eh, I'm just happy it works
