Index Gears
$74.00 – $205.00
The Ultra Tec Mast comes with a 96 Index Gear--the most often used.  Faceting designs specify the Index Gear, and the 96 and 64 cover about 80% of published designs.  Changing Index Gears takes only a few minutes. The symmetry of a design depends on which numbers divide evenly into the available number of teeth on the Index Gear.  For example, a 5-sided design will use an 80 Index Gear, a 3-sided design will use a 72 or 96, etc.  Why does a designer choose one or another when both will allow the same number of sides?--well, the more teeth, the more subtlety of design is possible.
Index Gears available are:
32 - 64 - 72 - 77 - 80 - 84 - 96 - 120
