Hi DanH. I'm new to the forum but read your great post. I have a RF45 mill too ('98 vintage Taiwanese) & spent many hours looking at gear drive motors on ebay for this exact application. I'm glad I chickened out because it looks more involved as I suspected. Actually I'd be happy to just lighten the hand crank load with gas springs. Did you post that installation somewhere? I tried search & didnt see anything.
