This is where the HG-1 started. On the left is the gearbox from one of the original HG-1 prototypes. In retrospect, it’s hilariously over-engineered. Machined aluminum, substantial bevel gears, ground stainless-steel shafts, and a 1:1 gear ratio. Basically, built like a tank. At the time, that was partly the point. We weren’t particularly interested in figuring out how little material we could get away with. We wanted something rigid, precise and mechanical—and something that felt like it would still be working long after we were gone. On the right is the gearbox from the HG-1 Prime. Smaller, more refined, and with a 2.5:1 gear ratio that provides considerably more mechanical advantage at the handle. The basic idea hasn’t changed. We don’t change things simply because they’re old. If something works, it stays. When we find a genuinely better way of doing something, we change it. Thirteen years separate these two gearboxes. There’s a lot of HG-1 history sitting on that table.
