I use Greg Frosts' gear library all the time, the code module you want
to execute needs to be run - there are working examples in the code,
which take the module defaults...
bevel_gear (); //runs the code...
but it runs with the parameters set in the bevel_gear module - this is a
working example of the modified parameter set I use..
bevel_gear_flat = 1;
bevel_gear_back_cone = 1;
module bevel_gear (
number_of_teeth=30,
cone_distance=115,
face_width=8,
outside_circular_pitch=550,
pressure_angle=30,
clearance = 0.2,
bore_diameter=11.2,
gear_thickness = 10,
backlash = 0,
involute_facets=0,
finish = -1)
It will only generate a gear if you press F6.
