    Clever it is but it certainly isn't "fractal". Fractal implies a geometric figure that is self-similar at all scales.

    Hi, It may not be fractal but it certainly at some point in time may very well come in handy for that one job that will make it well worth the effort. Keep it in the tool box, it's worth it. Thanks.

    Here's the classic fractal design that mklotz is referring to, found here on Alibaba.



    The gear segment design above is still a better direction for this trend to take than the inevitable 3D printed versions.
