We need to be careful here... If you have actually "designed" the gearbox, you need to publish the design in a "public forum" in order to legally use it for the competition. (This is assuming that the same rules apply as last year... which may change, but probably not.)
The rule of not using custom designs over again is certainly the most violated in FRC. Many teams use the same designs over and over again without understanding that they are not following the rules.
The best part is that many teams have begun to publish their designs with complete drawings and specifications. This goes for both parts and software. THANK YOU to those teams who have been sharing their success!
