Re: pic: Team Rush 27 - unofficial teaser

I can't vouch for this team, but what we've done in the past is used Inventor's gear generator and then CNC'd the drawings. The same could be done with a waterjet machine for smaller, more precise pieces. I have heard that plasma cutters are too messy to make gears, but our team doesn't have access to one.
