This is a geared version of the model of the asteroid Psyche!

Video of it in action here: https://youtu.be/Rr6EFCilcxE

Derived from Emmett Lalish's outstanding Three Heart Gears.

What's in the box:

Psyche_Gears_All_Parts_Scaled.stl

This is an arranged printable model with all parts required. For a quick print, this is probably what you are looking for. Scale up/down as needed for your printer, although this size is probably at the lower end of what could be printed.

Psyche_Gears.scad

The OpenSCAD code in case you want to tweak or revise (NB: You must have Psyche_10k_100mm.stl in the same folder for this to work!)

Psyche_Gears_Pin.stl

Parametric snap pins (8 required)

Psyche_Gears.stl

The assembled model. Included for reference, as building this without it would be extremely tricky!

Psyche_10k_100mm.stl

A new low-poly version of the original Psyche model with only 10k triangles to keep OpenSCAD rendering times sane.
