My traversing gearboxes are progressing well. I needed two small gears that are the final drive to the turret gear so I thought I would have a go and make them. I'm sure it is a very unorthodox method and I had no idea if they would work or even mesh for that matter. After completion I ran them around the big main gear and it was really nice. The teeth meshed with no catching at all so I am a happy vegemite with these. Again they won't be in view once installed but they will work as per the original.
