The housing is complete and the gear fits really nice and spins well. I just need to get it to fit into the jigsaw and remain aligned. Matt,, sorry I never answered your question of why I'm using steel. There is a few reasons. First is I have lots of different sized on hand, I find it easier to work with than alloy. It doesn't damage in the lathe chuck and you can give it a hammer with out distorting it. Welding is so mush easier as is shaping and I'm much better at welding steel than aluminium.
Colin.
