I would not call the Technokats transmission simple (and this is coming from someone who was responsible for all the machining for an almost identical copy)

The principle is simples, however, it is most definitely not simple to make some of the parts without a CNC mill, something my team lacked. it can be done by hand, however it is VERY time consuming.
