Description
I am reworking the model to have a 2nd version with looser tolerances, and possibly multiple body styles.
Behold, my winter break project! I've been wanting to design something fidgety with helical gears for years now but I never had the time for it. As this is my first project involving them, the tolerances are a little tight in some spots, but it all works and that's good enough for me!
To build one of these you will need:
A full assembly guide is attached with the rest of the files
Printing Advice
All parts should be able to be printed without supports except for the center cap. I printed all my parts at .15mm layer height, but .2 should still work.
Brims do make the outer gears significantly easier to print, just make sure you remove all the brim or it will interfere when attempting to turn.
Please leave a comment if you have any questions!
