Description

Three gears mounted on a flat base plate. Turn the center gear and the two outer gears spin in the opposite direction. The teeth mesh smoothly right off the print bed. Flat and pocket-friendly — toss it in your backpack and fidget between classes.

  • Print flat on the bed — this is a print-in-place design
  • Gears should spin freely after printing; if stuck, gently twist to free
  • 0.2mm layer height with 0.15mm first layer for clean gear teeth
  • Looks great in two-tone if you do a filament swap at layer 3
