I know you didn't necessarily ask me, but what I did was I changed the regular VEXPro 15t 20DP bevel gear file to be a 5/16" hex instead of a 3/8" hex. I also removed the bottom step-in on the bevel for a better print. The 5/16" hex allowed us to run hex inside of a 9mm ID 17mm OD ball bearing from McMaster (7804K148).
