Hey Keith,

I don't actually have any of those 'timing gears' so I can't say for sure, but to me it looks like it's a set of those timing gears with a 'bar 4L' stuck between each tooth. You'll notice in the 2 photos you commented on they pillars are either 4 or 8 high.

That's just a guess, but hope it helps!

Cheers,
- James

Ah that makes sense now, Thanks for the tip James,

To bad those timing gears are over a buck each, Might have come in handy on the museum build :)
