    New Part: x784 Technic Gear Hailfire Droid Wheel —Amnon Silverstein
   Tonight I hammered out the Droid Wheel Gear. I used lots of sub parts, and I think it is pretty efficient, especially considering how many fins and teeth this thing has! I will post the dats in a follow up in plain text. (2 URLs) (19 years ago, 1-Dec-05, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts, FTX)
