Cutting a big gear&shaft& internal acme thread part out of a 5x5x4 inch chunk of steel is the funniest. or most wasteful. It could have had the exact same function except harder steel and a fraction of the price by just using 1" plate and 2" round bar and a bit of keystock. Buying an off-the-shelf gear reduction would have cost less and lasted longer too, but it might have ruined the beautiful crt monitor shape of the thing.
