Nautilus Gears

My first 3D printable design, these nautilus gears are based on logarithmic spirals.

Available for purchase on LinkShapeways, or if you have your own printer make your own at LinkThingiverse.

The gear profiles were generated using a Maple script for which full credit goes to the Linkoriginal author.
