Adam Savage's Miniature Vault Door Build! (Part 2)

Description
Reader! It's a vault mechanism, and it works!
Please view the video below, if you haven't already. Adam's build is an amazing inspiration for the Vault making challenge, so watch it and make your own designs!!
As i mentioned in my previous upload, this will be the continuation of the replica of the mechanisms produced in Adam Savage's Vault Door Build, with some changes for 3D printing.
This mechanism has already become quite complicated with many moving parts. We added a new base place, a top plate, hear racks and the pins for opening/closing the final vault door!
Adam did an amazing job and used Acrylic to better visualize what happens in the mechanism. To mimic that, i added holes so you can view the pins moving.
Most of my time was consumed by making multiple test prints of the base to tweak the position of the secondary spur gears and adjust the tolerance such that there is minimal friction whilst not hindering proper function.
The assembly is straight forward, but if you necessary i can try to add some kind of explanation here. Just let me know in the comments if you need help with the assembly!
Next, i will try to build on this design and replicate the Vault mechanism Adam shared next!
