This is just a quick update to mention that my electric motor has arrived. I purchased a NetGain Warp 9 DC motor. I took the morning off to wait for the UPS freight truck to arrive with my heavy delivery. Weighing around 150 lbs., it is a bit difficult to move while in the cardboard box.
Inside, the motor is surrounded by expanding foam wrapped in plastic. The shafts are protected by cardboard inserts at either end. Sadly, the protective perforated grill on the right had a large dent in it. A quick email to the distributor yielded an RMA for the grill. However, I ended up taking it off and carefully warping it back into shape myself. The metal is quite malleable.
