Humanity demands precision and regular planetary or epicyclic gears can meet these standards with an innovative twist: novel tooth shapes. Observations suggest that traditional 3D printers produce higher quality results when using rounded instead of sharp edges for gear teeth, possibly due to improved stress distribution in the teeth similar to that found in bones. A single modification can dramatically alter this gear by adjusting the parameters for teeth on sun or planetary wheels, tooth width, height, or number of planets, with the current model set up to accommodate standard skate bearings. Testing remains incomplete. March 9th Update: Precision is crucial - a minor misalignment has been corrected; however, an anomaly persists at the turning point between tooth valley and top that requires attention before further updates are released. March 9th Update Two: An online adjustment has resolved this polygon issue temporarily using a "quick and dirty" solution; insightful feedback is welcome regarding more refined methods beyond increasing tooth radius by 0.01mm. March 11th Update Three: Compilations have proven demanding with significant memory usage (tens of gigabytes of RAM) and prolonged processing times necessitating the generation of DXF files followed by extrusion in a more practical approach to completing the design successfully, even after attempting to compile separate gears failed. March 13th Update Four: Optimization yields promising results, enabling compilation within an acceptable timeframe of about 130 minutes using approximately 5 GB of RAM; although exporting STLs is a considerable time investment. March 15th Update Five: A previously undetected error affecting the computation of planetary rotation placement in conjunction with adjustments for center hole calculation has been rectified along with essential changes when modifying planet quantities. March 17th Update Six: First prototype assembly experiences initial issues where distance tolerance between planets and the annular gear aligns adequately at 0.4 units, but significantly fails at ensuring sun-gear harmony; necessary reworking persists to refine compatibility standards.
