other gear shapes can be made as well. you can find some on http://www.thingiverse.com/search?q=gears&sa= or shown in youtube and i can research the patterns. oval. seahorse, etc. plus i can imprint designs in the spokes. spirals stars, etc.

i have a gear generator program where i can custom design gears of varios types teeth counts, sizes, spoke counts etc. so i can make gears to order for specific needs. including planetary gears and gear reduction gears. etc. if it can be designed within some limitations i can try and print them.

theis are just neon green. i can make glow in the dark gears but they are white not green. if you wish to order some let me know what size you want. i can scale them up or down as desired. thies were made with a 5MM hub to i could fit in a 5mm bearing with a 2MM spindle. i have 25 colors of filament i can make from as shown in the lab photo. spools are shown on the desktop. or you can go to amazon.com and look for 1.75MM pla filament and decide on your own color and type. there are some that even look like wood or stone.

Are they really glowing in the dark and if so, then working is hardly the coolest thing, though definitely makes them even more awesome. Where do I send my money?
