Great suggestion! I try some different crystals. But I will have to construct some type of barrier around the gear box to keep the greese from flying all over the place.

As far as the the metal interfering with the board...How does the guys with the Super version get by. With the metal gears, I essentially have a super version. I haven't heard of anyone having this problem.

I will have to wait until this weekend to reinstall the metal box again. I had taken it out when I couldn't figure it out. Everything is working fine without it.
