Cut this Steve Good pattern recently.  Pretty quick cut, not a lot of internals, the gears/teeth were probably the worst part due to the tedium of cutting the same shape over and over.  But they really went quick and weren't difficult.  He always puts a disclaimer about being careful when drilling peg holes for parts that are supposed to line up, but I cut the lines on the holes, didn't have to do much sanding/enlarging, and everything lined up perfectly.  I finished up the larger version of the heart(s) yesterday, and will probably sand the gears a little bit thinner this time just to make sure they don't bind since they're the same thickness as the two (hidden) spacer pieces.  If I had a plane, I'd take some scrap and plane it down to 1/16th thicker than the gears, just enough to allow easy spinning.  1/8" bbply, Pegas #1MG blades.
