A mechanically spinning gear box, fully 3D Printed. I provided 2 different versions for the doors, one is hollow and one solid.

Very cool design. Did you glue the triangles into place? I find they get caught on the adjacent gearheads frequently because they're able to sag in the z direction.

Thank you. I didn’t need glue, mine fit tight on both prints.

The difference is in your printer calibration. It's rare that two printers will print exactly the same. So with any model on any platform there will be some variation between printers.

This design is nifty, but poorly engineered, and here's why:

  • The triangle connecting points are too small and break off easily, leaving you to reprint a triangle and a small gear, as the connecting point gets stuck in the gear after breaking off.
  • There is no build order or, orientation order provided in the description of the file or the youtube video. You're supposed to figure out yourself how to assemble it.
  • The triangles sag in the z direction, so they do catch on the opposing gears.

Not sure why that would be. Working on my end

Got it working eventually. Ready to start printing.
