I have a need to cut some gears from hardwood, spur, interior and exterior ring and racks. pressure angle not important as long as they all match. The cheapest program I could find costs $700 which is way too much money and, I am sure, much more precise and complex than I need. I took a stab at designing from scratch on cad but this seems stupid since its all been done already. Any help? Thanks, Ralph  |

While the $77 dollar code sounds great, an inquiry tells me that a straight gear rack is not possible. The other suggestion is an add on to Auto Cad. I use an IMSI product called Design Cad 15. Not compatable. Still Looking, Ralph |
