Roomba Side Brush Gear STL
(I printed the Roomba_side_brush_gear_2_v4.stl)
The side where the supports were is a little bit rough but the gear still works great. I printed a few which I’ll leave for members in the roomba parts bin (under the 3D printer area). If you take the last one please print a few on one of the VHS 3D printers.
Edit: We have many parts for fixing roombas including the IR LED pairs that fix the circle of death error. Join us on slack in #roombarama for more info.
