This is a small experiment I made to model and create gears with a sort of herringbone tooth shape. I modeled it in FreeCAD, using the Involute gear and Loft functions, and it came out quite nice.
Since it's also a nice object to see, and to play with, I decided to share it.
I used Simplify3D to slice it, putting both gears in one print, and the base and two caps in another (to print them in different colors).
The whole thing printed in about two hours.
I printed it using and Arduino Mat
