Just a random thing I got linked to today that I thought might be of some value to teaching students gear ratios.

You might want to add an idler or 20.

It appears that the original site went down (too many CDers using it perhaps? :D ) so I mirrored it on my own server at http://socaldevs.com/gearsketch
The only difference is that I added a link to the open source license according to the terms of redistribution included with the license.
Enjoy :)
