Of course, at speed it becomes a wobbulator, unlike the flex coupling being balanced.
I had the parts laser cut to check the meshing and the resolution came out quite well. I can send a pic of the actual gears when I get back to the workshop.. Here is a pic of the gears and a universal coupling I would use to take off power.
