Inkscape can help design gears then you convert them to ngc file
The "software" I use is a series of programs I have put together over the years
I use my cnc router to cut the plastic

Quoting Chris Albertson <[email protected]>:

Could you explain your design process.  Are you using any software or are
you using my trick of "borrowing" CAS files for stock gear catalogs.   I'd
like to develop the ability to do more custom work without using so much
time.   I'm printing them now but I hope to use CNC later.

How are you cutting the plastic?  There are so many methods

Does any one have the information for calculating the components for a

It's just gears, but with a slight profile offset to get the PCDs to
match between internal gears of two different tooth counts.

How do you plan in making the gears?
