Well I have looked for a couple of days now for a free gear genertor and the closest that I get is here http://www.woodgears.ca/gear_cutting/template.html Now this is great but it doesnt allow you to save as a dxf. or eps. file so it doesnt really help me out. I was wondering if any of you guys know of one that I havent found that does allow me to save in one of the mentioned formats. The description says that it sends the gear to the printer in vector format but it doesnt save as a vector so.

Regnar -- This one is not "FREE" - but pretty cheap at less than 50 bucks. Been going to give it a try but been too busy with other projects!

And it goes straight to g code...

Is CamBam heading towards a gear model tool? hmmm don't recall if that was on his list or not.. :cheers: Jim

High Seas, I seen that during my searching and it will probably end up being the canidate for me but I just wanted to see if someone knew of a free one that is equally or just about as good. But it does look like a great program and for 50 bucks isnt too bad.

This is a stand alone progam, free, and the output is only in DXF, unfortunately it is german language only
