MetMo Gear Train
MetMo's latest creation turns mechanical obsession into something you can feel in your hands. Built around a precision-machined gear system, the tool amplifies input torque by a staggering factor of 16,384—each gear doubling power as it transfers force through the system. CNC-machined for absolute tolerances, it's engineered not just for performance, but for fascination. Even the locking pin becomes part of the experience: remove it, and reassembly is only possible when every gear aligns perfectly, transforming a simple mechanism into a tactile puzzle. It's a celebration of gears, leverage, and mechanical purity—designed to reward patience, precision, and an appreciation for how things truly work.
