Very. nice work! It’s on my ever growing list of projects

[Phil]

Very cool. I think you could sell the plans for that design. I'm sure you have a fair amount of time invested.

Really cool. It should be a great conversation piece.

[GEdward]

Cool indeed! I'm with Phil in thinking you could probably sell the plans for it. It's hard enough to make progress on the bucket list and then I have to add one more.

What program did you use to generate the gears?

thanks men this design I bought of ebay steampunk steel lamp dfx. format to be plasma cut from steel and the gears welded to the axles I added 1/8th slots to the gears and drilled 1/8"dia. pin holes in the bolts to get the gears to rotate also added 1/6th fillets to all of the sharp corners all pieces were cut using a 1/6th dia. straight flute end mill
so go for it men regards frank
