I printed gears and mount in ABS and it seems to work fine. I printed a second set with the gears made from armadillo filament. Time will tell if there is any real world difference.
Travel will cover a 4 inch blast gate and all three pieces will print on a single 200x200 bed.
For smaller gates, you can trim off the end of the geared rack.
You will probably want to lubricate the gears/slider mechanism.
For servos, you need something with some torque. I us
