Yes, we made this prototype because I wanted to see if we could make internal gears. Having made it, I'm not sure there are that many advantages over simpler designs. Perhaps I'll change my mind after we test it more.

BTW the gears were made with old Fellows shaper cutters found on ebay. It's possible the cutters are older than I am.
