I think it has teeth like those found on the bionicle double-bevel gears.
Might mesh, though I don't see any obvious connection points for anything

Um, I'm not sure I gave a very good reference to the "big round thing"...
the part I am talking about appears to be at least 10 studs in diameter and

it's the biggest part in the model. It has what appear to be ridges or gear
teeth on its outside circumference.
