Not to be rude, hon, but you'll have lower the resolution in your photos so that it doesn't take up space D: . Overall, though, I love what you've showing us the supplies at your disposal. However, I'm curious to know if whether these cogs and gears of yours were bought or were they scraps you've manage to find lying around. ^_Q

TOO BIG

Anyway.
I recommend the first one and some spray paint. Maybe a little gear on the side of the other goggle lens holder thingy.

If I had photo-editing software that wasn't corrupted I'd show you.
