In most constructions using a motor, you'll notice that there is an 8t gear
on the motor shaft meshed with a 24t gear, or even a 24t on the motor shaft
to another 24t gear.

Just replace the 24t (only need to replace one of them) with the 24t clutch
gear.

Now in the event that the gear train should stall, the cluch gear will
slip, which helps to prevent damage to your motor.

Hi,

I am currently reading through Dave's book.  It is the best.  I really like
the way he handles contruction.  This is far better than the O'Reilly book.
Great job!  I was wondering if you can add an addendum to the book on how to
use the clutch gear (the thick white gear that came with my 1.0 -> 1.5 RIS
upgrade).  Thanks for NQC & this book.
