Just a question, but why is the large gear solid like that? It’s probably printed at some low infill, so it shouldn’t matter much. But I think you can massively reduce printing time and material needed, while at the same time increasing the strength of the gear, if you were to switch to a spoked design.

I’ve tried adding holes in some things and sometimes it uses more filament since the walls often use a lot more filament than sparse infill, even with the holes.
