Files came in brilliant. By personal choice I would not of used the brim. By pure coincidence I just printed a small gear.? A bit rough but it is eventually to replace a broken gear kitchen device. i was given the broken gear with only 3 teeth on it, so # of teeth was a wild guess from 31 T to 33 T. i settled on 32 T, and will offer this proto up to the appliance and then if tooth count , major/minor diameters are all OK I will?make one in phosphor bronze. I have an digital electronic indexer that bolts to the mill table, and already made a .8 DP fly cutter. We shall see. The step indexer, again arduino firmware, was designed by Richard. thanks mate. it will index by # of divisions, angular displacement, jog and continuous run modes. also temp readings of the unit. The indexer head itself I made and also adapts as a horizontal mill head for my Weiss. All this is for another day. So much other digital stuff flying around at the moment.Phew.

Nylon is the among the best material for printed gears...flexible, self-lubricating, strong, etc. --
