I just wanted to mention that I'm trying to get away from the servo-mount gears. Aside from the fact that they're expensive and only available from one place, the thing about them is they sit flush with the top of the spline; they are not offset to one end of a barrel like a normal servo horn. This can be an issue depending on which servo you use and how thick a plate you want to mount it on.

 

I am moving towards this approach:

Wow, I looked up the "patents" http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=0&f=S&l=50&TERM1=Robotzone&FIELD1=ASNM&co1=AND&TERM2=&FIELD2=&d=PTXT held by assignee Robotzone for their servo gears, talk about obscuring obvious and prior art under an uncessing assault of geometrical mumbo-zombo. The US patent office is clearly not doing its job.
