Sorry for multiple questions, but where do you recommend to put the gears in relation to the housing, e.g in the middle, close to one side. As well I also haven't chosen my bearings so I can't calculate anything to do with bearings. I was thinking if I put the gear close to one side, it will cause a high reaction force on one side and a small reaction force on the other, is this a problem, as I can imagine, it might cause twist in the overall gearbox.
