The parts are trickling in. I don't know how they make any money! I ordered (16) 8mm couplers for the smaller motors, and ONE arrived. The others will be delivered soon, I guess.
I ordered 12 of the larger diameter couplers. FOUR arrived. I ordered four smaller motors. TWO arrived. This means the trucks will have to drive down AGAIN from Bowling Green , 25 miles away, to deliver the rest of the orders as they trickle in.
I told the drivers, "Just get a shelf and mark it "Joe Jones" Pile everything onto it and bring it all down on Monday morning in ONE TRIP
They said they don't work that way. I have had TWO amazon trucks arrive at the same time, each delivering 1/2 of the SAME ORDER.
Today, SO FAR, I have has THREE Amazon trucks pull up, one DHL, one private carrier, and one UPS truck. By the time I get this table together, they will have collectively driven about a thousand miles JUST to deliver all of the parts
I figure TWO of the larger motors can lift the platform, but I am connecting FOUR of the smaller motors, so that each drive shaft has a drive motor.

It may be able to raise an empty frame and grates, but I doubt it could raise 300 lb. of steel piled onto the grates.
I will switch to the 3/8" shaft motors and transmissions. I bought ALL of the components to set up a lift using both the light duty and heavier duty gear boxes. Motors, shafts, gear boxes, gears, gear racks, couplers, etc. etc.
