Can't believe it's been under my nose all the time (I work there)

Wow, is that a recent development?  I've scoured Maplin and their catalogue several times the past few years, I'm pretty sure that wasn't there.  Perhaps I should see if they've started selling vernier reduction drives again...

No, they've been there as long as I have (October)... Kicking Myself.

As for Vernier reduction drives... sadly not.
