Looking for the the infamous cd-rom middle gear
« on: December 20, 2010, 08:19:45 PM »
Title says it all, really. I'm looking for a gear in decent shape from anyone that has an otherwise dead cdrom unit.  :pray: I realize that these are hard to come by and I'm willing to pay accordingly.

There is a thread going on here in this forum about possibly getting these gears made.
We need a gear to be able to mold a new batch of gears. So if someone can donate a gear it is well worth a try!
Keep your eye on that thread to see what happens.

BTW- Excellent user name. I read Egil's Saga last month.  :clap:

Yeah, I saw that thread and I've got my fingers crossed that it comes to fruition. If not, I may have to try my hand at plastic molding.

Thanks for the user name compliment. Most people I come across have no idea who it is. Plus, it's almost never already taken when I sign up to online games or forums. :-$

Haha, that's awesome. I was just about to shitcan your account, too. I was saying to myself "There's no way that's not a spambot."
