Re: 2729 Safety

Well the original design called for a chain so it was supposed to be a sprocket but the chain did not fit.

The outside edge is maybe 2 inches on either side from the perimeter. It is powered by a window motor so I seriously doubt speed will be an issue with the huge gear ratio.

As for sharpness I think it would be pretty hard to cut anything on the edge but it certainly could give you a nasty poke. I figure we could sandwich it with pieces of plastic. Thanks for the opinions.
