Just what I was after, thank you. I use these micro motors in scratch built locomotives I run on my 16 mm garden railway. Just a question - have you ever thought about extending these brackets to allow for the gear on the motor to mesh with a gear on an axle that is right angle to the motor. Holes are drilled in the sides to hold micro bearings for the axle to run in. I know quite a number of colleagues all searching on line for such a bracket?

Ahoy William Thanks for the review. We've no plans for adding any new brackets to our range currently, but if you're just looking for a way to turn the motor output by 90° you could check out our right angle motors? https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/right-angle-micro-metal-gearmotor

The bracket is ok but the screws are very small and plastic

The brackets are fine, but the plastic screws did not work. Could not fasten the motors/brackets. The option was to open up the holes to 3.2mm and use standard 3mm metal screws

Securely holds the motor in place, although it can still slide back and forth a bit. I also replaced the plastic nuts and bolts with metal ones.

Nice brackets with nylon nuts and bolts, they fit over the motor housing not gearbox, plus they have a cute pirate on top.

What a great idea to have perfect mounting brackets for the micro motor and gearbox.
