Re: Gears in Inventor

Heck with drawing gears all together. I guess you could bother with it when working on models for animation in 3d Studio Max or something. One thing I picked up from reading countless CAD prints from Andy Baker was that his gears were always just cylinders. This keeps unnecessary lines off your CAD prints and makes orthographic views and section views more visually pleasing. If you are making a 3d model to show off it will also be easier on your computer since it wont have to process all the teeth and faces. Even when making individual prints of just the gear keep the teeth off and make a note saying something like "Altered purchased gear."
