Just for clarification; I have NEVER had a problem with the gears themselves. As long as the bearings don't wear out creating mesh play, the gears should last a long time. As a matter of fact, my first attempt at locking second gear used epoxy which ended up coming apart. Even with the large pieces of epoxy floating around in there, the gears didn't show any damage whatsoever (which I was pleasantly surprised). The pin issue I had could have simply been a weak spot in the metal itself or whatever.
