Thanks so much.
I found a supplier for a similar motor so I ordered the supplies for the power feed. I'd still love to see pics or hear more about that cam lock clutch. I know it's a pain to tear it down for pics, but I'd really appreciate that and I think I'm not alone.

I also would not recommend torque less than about 4 in/lb or RPM under 120.
