I would say check out
www.cbliss.com and
www.firstcadlibrary.com and take a look at some of the gears in both of those sites. Take one and download it and then "reverse engineer" it in inventor. I think you will prob learn alot by doing that and also you might find a few personal tricks by Ed Sparks at the FIRST cad library or by the content found at cbliss.com
Good Luck and keep us updated if you find any short cuts on creating gears.
