Loved the original design so decided to build one. It works great as is but I decided to make a few tiny upgrades to improve performance.

Increased the cog dimensions in 0.2mm increments on the radius to ensure perfect clicking on the headphone
Print:
Cog_Updated_0.2/4/6/8/1.0
I found 0.4 to work perfectly with my assembly

Made a few upgrades to make the turntable motion more level and smooth.
Print:
Chassis Cog cover updated X1
Turntable Support X3-7

Improved the Crank Wheel for tighter tolerances
Print:
Crank Wheel Updated

All sketchup files included too if you feel like making modifications. With my final setup I find that one rotation is 55 pictures which is precisely the gear ratio of 7-14-110. I suggest making turns one click at a time rather than just speeding through. Will update with some scanned models shortly
