Eventually printed 15mm 60tooth pulley for prop shaft, and 9mm 120 tooth pulley for intermediate shaft. My printer is limited to 130 tooth size at 5mm pitch in a single piece. If I wish to go with larger pulleys in the future they will have to be screwed together.
These can take 4-5 hours to print at only 12% infill. It would be great to use a much higher infill or solid pulley for durability, but it would take about a week to print this using solar power (can print only 4-5 hours per day). This gives a first stage reduction of 20:120 and second stage of 24:60. The total reduction is 15:1
