mount the motors (I'm still trying to figure out the way to do this cheaply!)

Align the threaded rods with the motors. (M8 threaded rod to 6.35mm shaft - any ideas...remember, proice is a motivating factor here!

1: Mount the motors rigidly to the shaft so the shaft supports the motor.

2: Run an arm from the motor and tie it to something solid with a rubber band. This means the shaft has to turn, not the motor.

The motor may wobble about a bit but it's cheap and it's a good solid connection
