Laser cut ABS is awesome. I suggest finding someone nearby with a Zing cutter. Just works.
See the attached zip package with a bunch of stuff in it.
The 120T #25 sprocket, plus the support, plus the assembly.
I gave you the native files in a student version of SolidWorks 2013/4 ( you can't open them in the non-student version nor in earlier versions of SW).
I have also provided STEP files of the parts and the assembly.
I have also included DXF files of the sprocket and the plate
Most cutters can work with either the DXF or the STEP file.
Note the thicknesses. Also when you make the sprocket you will have to use a file or sand paper to bevel the edges to let the chain sit tight.
I have also I have improved the part from my original, putting holes for easy alignment & clamping using #10 screws.Will I was at it I added the "standard FIRST bolt pattern" in the middle.
Good luck,
Dr. Joe.
