Description
Resin print is basically required for this small scale and i recommend using a small amount of silicone to attack the gear, or else it can slip
REVISED
So the original designed gear was slightly too big and had a problem where over the course of a few weeks the clock will stop working because the gear would build up friction against the edges and stall. This happened because in order for the gear to sit in properly it needed to be put in pretty loose. I thought this was normal and a result of how the clock was designed but NOPE. The issue is solved but this slightly smaller version of the gear which allows it to be tightened all of the way. Allowing the gear to sit solidly inside the clock with now irregular movements
SCALE
scale the gear to 50% of its size in whichever slicer you put it in. The gear should measure about 6 mm total width when scaled to 50%

Print price estimates
Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.
| Filament | USD / print | Application notes |
|---|---|---|
| PLA | $28.50 | Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors. |
| PETG | $29.00 | General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review. |
| ASA | $32.50 | Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry. |
| ABS | $31.50 | Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions. |
| TPU | $37.50 | Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials. |
| Nylon | $37.50 | Moisture, tolerances and application require review. |
| PA-CF | $42.50 | Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review. |
Pricing assumptions and exclusions
USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.
Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.
Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
