Excellent! I'll polish them and put them on PT. Thanks!

I have the feeling the 1L worm gear is not quite correct, but I can't confirm since I don't have the part (yet).
Or maybe I'm just not used to seeing a 1L worm gear and my brain is messing with me  Wink

Wow, haha, that's indeed a simple way to check the dimensions.  Big Grin

And besides the size, it looks like one 'side' of the real worm wheel has 3 'edges' and the other side 2. But the digital worm gear has 3 'edges' on both sides. 
Or is that just perspective?

Oops. I did not see that. Thanks for the korektur. That would have been embarrassing
