Support for intermittent gears

by notahardwareguy » Thu Dec 01, 2011 9:02 pm

Searched the site and found no mention of intermittent gears. I also played with the software and watched some of the videos, very impressive!

Is there any plans to add support for intermittent gears? If so, I would appreciate if it supported defining the percentage of the wheel face that has teeth as well as the size ratio between the wheel gear and the pinion gear.

Thanks for hearing me out and for a very well done program! Playing with the gear forms and constructing "contraptions" will cost me hours!  ;D

P.S. In case someone does not know what I mean (sorry I am new here and am not trying to offend anyone), here is a video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYcqJ5HdxA4 of different gear types. The intermittent gears start at time code 1:37. Thanks.
