the gear is the coolest fucking thing ever invented

@antipoti I believe its intentional, there wouldnt be a point in having non-circular gear if it acted exactly likely circular gear.

What program did you use here to make virtual gears? Looks like a lot of fun!

[carrionpvp]

@jariroth unless u count rotar engines

[Darkgon101]

program?

[karlene8089]

what is this

[pantyflash]

Like, non-circular gears are a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing. Way to go, babe!

TickTock.

@jariroth lol thats the reason no one uses such gears. Due to the change of it's angular velocity and the moment of inertia its level of efficiency is crappy ..

@lilwill3104 lol

@mapukmapuk at first i thought it was my computer, so I turned down the quality, but it still did it!

@antipoti all of them have variable speed...

[antipoti]

cool! :)

the only problem is that the speed of the 2nd gear is changing even if the 1st gear has a constant rotation speed. or is it the function of it?

[mapukmapuk]

you got fucking laggs on the video! i cant look at this!

The first one (The Geneva Motion) was used in film projectors for many years, I believe.

Hi,

Do you've got a vector file of the gears?

[RyanTheEpic]

Now that is some intreresting stuff. Gears like that would definately be perfect for mechanisms that need to run uneven amounts of rotation, but that would only work if the intervals were always the same. O_o
