    G0704 High/Low gear question

    I will be buying a G0704 soon, but before I do I have a question about the gearing. Are the High/Low gears plastic or metal? Also what are all the gears in the mill made of?

    The intermediate gears (hi/low and drive gear) are plastic, meant to be a fusible link.
    The spindle and motor gears are steel.
