If those gears lie in the same plane, and are of the same thickness, what use would they be other than as a rather dramatic brake? If they moved independently in the Z-axis or were different thicknesses, I can think of some interesting uses, but as drawn, I'm stumped.

Re: Fun With Gears

I believe that lavery is suggesting that they not all be on the same plane. For instance, if Gear 2 was 1" thick and Gears 1 and 3 were 1/4" thick and Gear 1 was not on the same plane as Gear 3 but both touched Gear 2, Then you would be directly transferring energy from Gear 1 to Gear 3. Make sense?
