From there I build off the gear, i.e. wheels, axles, collars. If you set your gear to pin when first placing it, it should only move the gear, and whatever has been "attached" to the gear when you hold alt and ctrl.
OK, here is my sequence:

I load a C-channel piece.
I load a gear.
I select "pin".
I click on the center of the gear, then the center of one of the C-channel holes.
It lines up, says "coincident" on the middle of the gear.
Status at the top says: "connection definition is incomplete"

Where do I go from here? If I switch back to "user defined", it lets me click the green checkmark and says "partially constrained", but the gear will not spin around the axis.

Thanks for your help. Sorry I am so dense.
