Re: How to make gears mesh properly.

I think for calculating the distance, there are three #'s that should be summed to get your center distance. The outer radius of the first gear, the inner radius of the second gear, and the working depth of the gears that are being used. The working depth takes into account that gears do not mesh all the way to the bottom, adding an additional thousandth or two will give you a good center distance #. I am not positive on this though....
