Description
I was able to acquire a Ryobi WDS1600 drum sander for super cheap due to a broken gear. This gear replaces the main drive gear that interacts with the drive shaft. Only time will tell how long a 3d printed gear will work for this application, but if mine breaks I'll update the post with that info (if I remember I posted it).
Ultimately I'll probably try to get one machined out of metal, but this is a good placeholder and also provides all the necessary dimensions.
