I created this to automate my window blinds.
The MG995/996180* that the servo alone would travel was not enough so I created a gearbox. When printing flip the gearbox 90* so that the flat side with the two holes is on your build plate. **see update below**

Now both gears are 16T and there is more than enough power and rotation for the blinds.
Feb-3-2017 I have updated a variation which should work for older blinds with the rotation rod centered down the length of the blind. It needs
