Drive gear printed and tested.
🕑 Added 2017-07-10 21:22:19 +0000 UTC Drive gear, drive motor bracket, slip ring bracket and cabling support all done and tested. I've just got some soldering to do now! Note these designs are not posted at the moment because my phone lines and internet is down. I'll pop them up as soon as I can! Damn BT...

It is a 6 wire set up, the hole in the centre though can be adjusted easily and it's a single piece which has the hole in as part of the structure so send across any sizes and I'll change accordingly. Takes seconds.

What size (diameter) slip ring is this designed for? I'm only able to count 5 wires, but I'm guessing this is a 6 wire setup?
