Thanks Torsten, and sorry it's taken me so long to (still not) do anything about this. For what it's worth, in general, it's a good idea to communicate about work that you're thinking about doing, when there's a chance someone else will already be doing that work.

Very cool! Are the ring and pinion spiral bevel gears or hypoid? I ask somewhat cautiously, because I just treated myself to a book on gear design, with the idea of making a tool for drawing hypoids...

I've moved this from the Open Discussion forum, as it seems more like a help request.

blueshift - please give us a little more information, so we can help you. What articles have you read, what FreeCAD version are you using, and on what OS?
