    A good option for homemade products, but there are questions, electricity is not always available, but the idea itself about alternative traction is excellent.

    And the gearbox, if I’m not mistaken, was taken from the railway - a switch drive.

    Does the large gear on the shaft run along a key? Won't it cut it off?

    The large gear of the gearbox was ground or an original one.
