Build a little motocross track in there and race minibikes with your friends!

When I built industrial gearboxes for a living, we fixed bad/rough castings with JB Weld!

I was thinking same thing. I'd go 440 and 422. That gets you two sizes and two jaw types. Spread the bets a bit.

Hahaha! Love the Donnie Baker reference!
