Will advise on repair.
Thinking back, I believe the large sprocket (plastic I think) cracked while attempting to crush a small Starbucks Frappacinno bottle. Those things are a bit thick, and it didn't break, so I won't be putting those in anymore. Still, you'd think it would just compact it down with all the other stuff. Maybe the sprocket was cracked already or the drive line was missing a bushing or something. I'll take it apart and see after installing the motor pack. Bonus: now I will have spare parts and spare new motor on hand for doing the warantee work myself!!
