Helical Gears 45 degrees 36t + 12t (Danish Plastic Co - Play Well)

Consider to follow along if you enjoy what I do. Just ask if you have an idea for a custom piece, RC part, or other object you'd like made. I handle most mechanical design work. Basic patching is also something I can tackle. This is my second upload, as the previous one was taken down. You can check out the pictures here: https://imgur.com/a/bZYSqdm These helical gears are a 45-degree setup. Resin printers perform better than FDM for creating smooth gears. While FDM will work, you'll need to follow these instructions: Take note if you're using an FDM printer: You'll have to wear down the gears slightly before they're ready for use in a vehicle or creation. To achieve this, build something like the picture shows - connect a motor to the smallest gear and let it run for 10 minutes. After that, connect the motor to the larger gear and run it for some time until it's smooth. For printing, use 0.1mm or lower resolution. I printed the 36t gear with 0.1mm layer height and 30% infill. The 12t gear was printed with 0.05mm layer height and 100% infill. If you'd like to have other gears made - straight cut or helical - just send me a message, and we'll make it happen.
