and 24t on the ends, and it did run. Unfortunately, not alotta torque and the
compressor stalled at what I consider to be pretty low air pressure.
I'll post the MLCad file somewhere if anyone wants to download it--I'm using a
pretty old parts file--it doesn't have the RC motor or a few other pieces, so I
substituted as best I could.
