Hi Drew:

  Thx for the suggestions, I will take them into accoutn on the printer output recoding. GM is undergoing a
major retrofir this year, and in the fall will be re-released as a new version. ( Free upgrade of course), and Ill
try to ensure a paper alignment method is used for woodcutters like yourself.

Thx
Art

Thanks for the program I love it  ;)
I use it to design clock works that I print out and glue to wood to cut out. It would be great to be able to have a centre mark for the gears either a dot or cross hairs to make it easier for drilling the arbor holes.
At present I just change the shaft diameter to 1 but this does impact on the spoke designs.

My other wish would be for an option of a cross hatch overlay of varying dimensions that could be used for designs that cover multiple sheets of A4. This would make alignment of those pages soooo much easier  ;D

Cheers
