Re: BaneBots 56mm Gearbox - Second Stage Sun Seizing

thanks

my father and i got impatient and within a half an hour of my posting we had a pen torch and a screwdriver. we heated up the gear and pryed with a screwdriver and it came off in about a minutes worth of work. Besides the sun gear being really freaking hot for 10 minutes there was no damage. we then deburred the shaft and inside of the gear and put it back on. the sun spins freely now and after putting everything back together it works fine and in general sounds smoother and less strained.
