Good news!

It turns out the folks I bought that motor from have another one!

I'm asking about some details & what they would charge to ship it direct. This might be the least expensive way to handle things, rather than shipping it back & forth.

***edit***
It just occured to me, perhaps we can "crowdsource" funding for this motor?
I've never done something like this. I definitely want this to be completely honest, etc. I DON'T want anything from it. Here's what we could do:
1) I'll purchase the motor and send to Paul. It it now his motor, not a loan.
2) We'll set up some "motor" fund at Paul's website.
3) Those that would like to help out, send what feels right to Paul's website.
4) For those that help out, there can be a "Thank you" list or maybe something cool and useful . . . I don't know.
5) This fund will help compensate my cost for the motor & shipping - Paul can trade out a motor controller board or something in the future, up to the cost of motor.

Thoughts?
