oh, obviously there should be two identical but reversed copies of that curve, the one shown is
used to determine the right side profile of the teeth, (in an elliptical each side of the teeth have their own
unique profile) and the left profiler curve is just the reverse of the one shown.

Looks good Art, can't wait till it's functional.  The Dark Arts will see the light soon.

Cheers,
Mark

Hi All:

  A bug was reported in the printing section of GT. While at first I coudlnt repeat it, it turns out it was due to the center of the placement
on the sim screen not being taken into account. This messed up the print. It has been repaired if you redownload. No version numbers were changed, but the fix has been implemented.

Thx

Hi All:

  Just a quick progress report. I now have the ellipticals toothing with entirely new routines based on racks.
It takes approx 3 seconds on my system to tooth an elliptical to high resolution, ( Beating GM by orders of magnitude),
so now I have to optimize the code that finally worked to see if I can gain more time.. then do the spoking requirements for
them. I hope to release within a month at least a preliminary noncirculars module, which is actually faster than I envisioned
and so far I have lots of puppies left. :-)

Looks funny Truly

The spokes look weak at the hub connection, looks like they would flex and/or break depending on the material used and the direction of rotation. Do like your creative design nature. You are using both Left brain Right brain.  :)

Printed on my Up! Mini, they are module 2, about 2" long in the longest dimension. Took about 30 minutes to print each
one. (And they meshed perfectly first try. ). :)

  A new version with ellipticals and these logarithmic spirals should be out in a day or two I Hope.
