Machine cut slits are highly overrated, and not nearly as manly as the hand carved version. I've employed that method many times myself. Mike

Franko asked the wrong question....The real question is: Does it continue to spin on it's own without outside help?

Initially the 45 tooth gear, only because that was the first one I grabbed.
Hopefully it will eventually be adjustable to take every gear from 80 to 28 teeth.
