Sailrite actually sell a 10 toothed version. This reduces the top end speed but gives you better low end range. There is an 8 toothed on here you can 3D print. It works as expected, much slower but with the same power. Its a bit nosier as the motor is spinning faster at the lower speeds. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:16627 I am just wondering why no one seems to mention this option. You know this thread is about a year and a half old, right? The Sailrite 10 tooth cogged pulley is discontinued, according to their website. I was happy with my LSZ-1 with the original motor and I'm thrilled with how it works with the WorkerB servo motor. It give me great slow speed control as well as plenty of punching power for thicker assemblies. Not sure what your pulley would have actually improved, if anything.

I was trying to find someone else who has reduced the pinon size on the motor but I can't. 10 tooth cogged pulley is discontinued but they still have stock. I am just trying to figure out why reducing the size of the pinon gear isn't a good option, It seems to do exactly what a lot of people want, which is improvement of low speed at the expense of high/fast speed. the XL 8T cog can be 3d printed from here, you do need to make the shaft a bit larger (8mm). https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:16627 Quote
