Gears

IvARhX3LKhMpUtwB — Tue, 27 May 2008 14:15:49 GMT

Contains 12 pairs of gears (two gears glued together), a base board, and two end gears. Can you place the gear pairs on the right axles so that the gear on the first axle turns the seventh? It's harder than it seems, you will need all but one piece.

Clear Acrylic Clock

OchenK — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 02:56:02 GMT

This is a pendulum clock made of clear acrylic and nested brass tubes. The design of the gear train, escapement mechanism, and housing is original. As such, I’m sure it’s not as refined as it could be. It’s missing things like a ratchet system. There’s a weight, but it’s not in the images. All that said, it does actually work (woot!!!) and is reasonably accurate.

5mm gears only (4.5-5mm)

reprap — Tue, 03 Mar 2009 21:16:40 GMT

This is a set of ball-chain gears for those making their own RepRap or Repstrap and are unable to find timing belt. It includes all the gears for the X, Y (3.3 and 3.5mm chain) and Z (2 varying 4.5mm chains) axes. Rims included. Cut this on a P1-sized (180x180mm) 4.5mm acrylic. Do not mix type A and B gears. Smaller gears are etched with the chain size in mm.

Gears Final

CrankingGears — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:35:33 GMT

This is my project for TID, the "Interactive-character/object". I created a gear display. I created the project with the three materials. Wood, 7/16 in. wooden prongs, and acrylic plastic. I used a laser cutter to cut the acrylic gears and acrylic front cover. I also used a saw to cut the wooden board and the wooden prongs. The verb for the project is turn or crank. By turning the main gear, all the gears turn.

Steampunk Gears

WilsonGraphics — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:09:19 GMT

This set of gears is a design I use for my wall graphic business. It has been very popular with customers and I thought it would look wicked actually cut out of a material so that it would have depth. It would be suitable as wall decor or as accents on DIY cabinets, chests, drawers, boxes etc. One suggestion for finishing this design would be to cut it from MDO and apply a spray brass finish then "weather it" by wiping with some black paint in a few spots, leaving just enough to suggest age and corrosion.

Plate No. 144 of the Cycloidal Scribbling-Engine

mrvelocipede — Sun, 30 Dec 2012 14:42:33 GMT

This is exactly like the toy you remember, only bigger and with more options. Each plate is cut from 3mm clear acrylic, is 7" (18cm) across, and includes a variety of rings and gears in several sizes. The individual plates work as self-contained sets, or they can be combined with each other to make an ever-increasing number of different patterns. The laser-cut plate will be shipped directly from Ponoko to you, which means that you'll need to provide your own pins, pin-board (I recommend foamcore), and pens. NOTE! This drawing tool uses pins with sharp points. It is not recommended that you give it to a small child (or foolish grown-up person) who might eat the pins. Eating pins is pretty much always a bad idea. There's a slightly longer discussion of pins and pens on my page of notes, which also addresses the problem of pen-skid: http://polychroma.com/spiro-info.html Plate 144 contains outer ring 144, inner/outer ring 144-96, inner/outer ring 96-63, and gear 63. All the patterns shown in this group were drawn using parts from this plate only.

Any smaller gear can be used to draw inside the cut-out opening from any larger gear, so there are lots of possible combinations! All the patterns shown in this group were drawn using parts from this plate only.

However, if you'd like a different set of three (or even three all the same), please send me a message. There are a lot of possible patterns once you combine the parts from all three plates. I've made a printable PDF of inside patterns, which may be found here: http://polychroma.com/spiro/patternguide.pdf
