So I was bored and did not like seeing the facets on the sides of the small herringbone gear I have been printing recently so I decided to do something about it. I got all my orginal files from Lulzbot http://download.lulzbot.com/AO-101/hardware/printed_parts/source/ since it was with their files that I notices the facets on the gears. Granted I realize that this is not really a problem that plaguing the community or anything like that, but still the changes I made to the openscad file could be use for someone else project. So here you go. Sadly I can't directly upload the stl's here since the high res versions are a wee bit larger than their originals and over the forum limit. So you will either have to export them yourselves from openscad or get them from thingiverse for now http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:97377. Now some might find this excessive but I prefer letting Slic3r to decide where to make the cuts on the resolution. Especially since I know the original lower res version is completely functional. I have not gotten to print them out yet but I will try to get around to that on monday and let everyone know how it goes.
