Two-way Rotation to Clockwise with Ratcheting Gear Mechanism

thingiverse

This mechanism converts two-way rotation (clockwise or counter-clockwise), and outputs only one-way clockwise rotation, from the middle gear. It's based off a design I saw by Maker's Muse, which I found fascinating, and had to try recreating myself. Also I tried to do my best to make it easy to print and simple to assemble. My first prototype worked great, so I made a few improvements, and although it should work, there might be an issue with the hole sizes or ratchets. So let me know if there's a problem, and I'll see what I can do. I'm definitely going to make a better ratchet gear next, current one is too shallow and allows too much slip..
