Summary

Print-in-place nautilus/fibonacci gears. These are designed to be printed in one single build with no assembly required. I borrowed and modified the SolidWorks files found here:

https://grabcad.com/library/nautilus-gears-1

Which in turn were generated from the files found in this Thingiverse build:

Which I guess makes this a remix? Maybe? I don't know, I haven't figured out how remixes or crediting the original creators works exactly.

NOTE: In order to get this to print properly and move when done, you MUST have your horizontal expansion settings and your bridging settings dialed in very well. If you don't, the parts will fuse and won't be able to move. Even with my setting dialed in, it took some serious wiggling to get mine moving.

NOTE 2: the original part file will print a lot easier, but will be very loose and wiggly. The V3 part file requires much tighter print settings but fits much better.
