To finish the whole thing you should definitely throw in the CAD of the bearings and hardware.

Very nice rendering! And it's even LASA purple!

Would I be correct in guessing that behind that center shaft you've got a fisher price motor through an AndyMark planetary?

Looks like you guys could have a very nice setup next year.

Why is there a very small radius on the edges of the outer face of the outer plate?

That seems like it'd be a very time consuming process to cut.

It kind of looks like a chamfer to me. Could just be an aesthetic touch.

Just a bit of aesthetics. The render did not look nice without it! I'm working on getting the main plate done the same way too.
