Description

This is a much lower-volume version of my original design.  The base has hollowed-out sections on the bottom to reduce filament use, and those sections have rounded corners to reduce jogging stress on your machine while printing.  (Sharp corners are harder on CNC machines than nice, gentle ones.)  The mounting posts have also been changed to a much larger diameter, and have a 0.1" hole for a wood screw and large washer to hold the gears in place.  The walls of the gears are only 0.8mm thick (twice the size of my nozzle), to reduce printing time and filament use, but the bottom side of the gears is 0.5315" thick for strength and stability. This model is also a bit smaller than my previous one, and was made specifically to fit on my 7.8" x 7.8"  print bed, with a bit of room to spare.   Also, you might notice that I made one gear shorter than the other on this model.  This required tweaking the twist radius of the extrusion, in order for the gears to mesh properly... but I thought it added a nice touch.  My printer is very busy right now, or I'd be printing this object... but I will post images of it, once I'm able to print it.
