Trying to fix a Braun fruit juicer which has an intermediate gear with stripped teeth (made of plastic, so built-in obsolescence. No surprise there) I have the Braun part number (67050175) and am trying to source a replacement gear, but if I can't get hold of it, is there a service available whereby I could send in the failed gear for copying, preferably in metal? It's intact except for approximately half a dozen stripped teeth. Seems unlikely but doesn't hurt to ask.

Are there materials suitable for 3D-printing this part yet?

Copying a gear?

Am I the only one who finds these things a touch creepy?

No.

Watch the bit starting at 0:30 where the robot's rear foot slips on a rock and the way it recovers its balance. That's eerily close to how an animal would behave.

My level of creep has been increased by noticing the cameras "looking round", too. (Where the "head" would be, if it had one.)
