I need two tiny gears

[curious aardvark]

right trying out some colorfabb xt - a co-polyester based material.

Very tough and hard wearing, if it'll print this level of detail it'll be much better than pla.
Nearly as stiff but a lot more hardwearing.

Assuming I can get it off the printbite in one piece lol

well looks good so far.
Nice looking gears - have to wait for the bed to cool and keep my fingers crossed.

lol well , didn't wait for it to cool but a sharp tap with a strip of printbite and a hammer worked a treat. Two went richocheting around the room before I learnt to keep my hand over them before tapping.
But these are really really nice and super strong.
1.36mm thick and I can't bend or break them with my fingers.
I'll drop them down to somewhere between 1-1.2.

These are the dogs bollocks and no mistake :-)

The smooth one is the bottom from the printbite, the rougher one is the top. You'll have to drill your own holes, but the centre is clearly marked.

right I'll redesign the smaller ones and have a go with those.

I'd have been a little concerned with the pla that the teeth might break off - not a chance of that happening with these. This stuff is super tough.
