Re: Tamiya bolt on reduction gear
Wow, I think your really onto something here and I'd be ready to sell these to every member on here. The aesthetics of your design are extremely nice but being a CNC programmer and job estimator I think they will cost a fortune to surface them out of metal. Most aftermarket 3d milled parts on the market could look a million times better if the mill step over was shorted and feed rates were reduced, but of course that costs more. My point is if someone is going to quickly 3d mill something and produce a bad finish (ex. the rc4wd Kenworth grills) you might as well just print it and sell it at a lower price point. At least the color blends in. Kudos to your ingenuity and Im very interested in seeing this evolve.
