Believe it or not but I do understand that a 100oz/in motor is only
going
to put out 100oz/in :-) But I guess I have a problem coming up with the
right terminology when it comes to things like you mention above; the
fact that I can get 200oz/in with gearing. This is the point I tried
to (poorly) get across last night. Oh well, I'll just have to keep
plugging along. Seriously though, thanks for all the help.
