Re: pic: GT2 Pulleys

We usually make our own #25 sprockets. In house we can make then for about $1.20 a piece vs. the $9 average to buy one. At this point we've made all "standard" sizes up to 60 teeth, so we have the CAM's saved, as well as the fixture. So now its just a matter of running the operation to make them, and setting up the tools. Its really nice for prototyping when we want a specific size!
