Title: WANTED Maxon 4.4:1 planetary gearbox

I'm looking for a Maxon gearbox as pictured.  If you have one or something similar that you would consider parting with please let me know.

Do you have to take out a second mortgage for one of these?  :D

They go for about $60 new but they were used back in the earlier days prior to the outrunner taking over the market.  One might be sitting on a shelf somewhere.

They look beautifully made.

What's your application?
