Easy Bake Gear Generator

thingiverse

I wiped up a gear generator based on the MCAD 'involute_gears.scad' libarary Hopefully, this makes creating gears very easy since all you have to do is plug in some numbers and press F6. Options include: recessed sides (single or double sided) gear hub (single or double sided) set screw in the gear hub relief holes UPDATE: V0.76 Added options for double set screws and setting the distance for the set screw from the end of the hub. Renamed everything. Added a couple of new examples.
