building idea (by Thierry)

Making a gear is complicated for a newbie. Yet the software seems very accessible to beginners. So here's an idea:
From abacuses, one could ask the software to build the requested gear.

I know: It's easier said than done.
Thank's.

Freecad has a module for making gears. So it's free...

There are also gear creation libraries for Openscad, and if you don't extrude you can export a dwg for import into Solvespace..

I'm the creator of the videos about the involute gear. I'm going to figure out why the videos on my website cannot be seen in full screen. In the mean time I'll provide you with the direct links of the videos on PeerTube:
