Best way is to steal somebody else's model and improve it to your taste. That is the main use of Blender in 3D-printing, because parametric modelling is not the best property in Blender. Although it is almost feasible to define OpenSCA

True sort-of, but then sprockets are ruined for good and new chain does not fit. That is why had three chains and I rotated them weekly. And then if you throw the oldest chain away after 10000 km, the sprockets will last 30 years. This is h
