At some point I'll have to render my point motors though.  I use an extra
axle with a bush behind the drive pinion, to keep the rack level and stop
the structure from lifting.  I also use elastic bands as a belt drive for
over-run protection - personally I think it's a much safer design.  Does the
latest part update for LDraw have some decent gears in it yet?

How do you mean 'decent gears'?  Are there some specific gears missing,
or are you having problems with the existing parts?

Okay, this is phhhreaking me out.  I just checked on my MLCAD and all the
gear parts are there - and I haven't downloaded an update lately.  The only
thing I can think of is I stuck an extra 32MB memory in a few weeks ago.

It's possible you needed to do a 'parts scan' in MLCAD, to see all the
available parts.

Beforehand, all I got were the outer teeth of the few gears that did appear.
Or was I looking in the wrong section?

Did you get a new version of MLCAD, or change any of the settings?  It's
been pointed out to me that some of the gears don't render well in
MLCAD.  I believe that has to do with some of the rendering settings.
