Hmm.............

It is the couple of months of design time that nobody wants to pay for! My repeat manufacturing cost might be in the order of £100. Design, say £250.

The other gearboxes that I have made were made because I wanted one. Then I made copies for other people. This is different as I have no interest in the TM2.

I would also point out that I wouldn't make a direct copy. I would need it to be split vertically along the centre line of the prop-shaft. I would also want to put an inspection plate on it so that you could see what you were doing whilst trying to set up those awful bevel gears! ;-)
