After 3 prototypes and several motors I finally got this cat toy motorized, still pretty loud though I wonder if I can dampen the gearbox somehow

    Are you using straight cut gears?

      Not sure, do you mean like, angled real sharp? Because I believe there’s a bit of a rounded fillet on the teeth of the gears

        Look into helical gears
