Fixed my issue with the missing HEAD, now displayed.  :)

went to the "C:\Program Files\Gearotic Motion" folder
Right clicked on GearoticThoughts.exe
Selected Compatibility Tab; Privilege Level: check box to "Run this program as an administrator"

I found it hard to believe that as many people that have tried GT have not had the same issue. Made me think it was something with the graphics driver on this Lenovo laptop. Guess not! Ya-Nvr-No  :-\

I would need a little help ???
I notice that when I go into the cnc mode to gen code for a pulley or gear I'm confused with what should I turn my OD measurements to. As per example one place says OD to be 2.0165 and in the settings shows it to be 2.1414 about .125 difference. Would the larger OD the rough size that I should turn the OD to?

Also the radius does not add up with any of the OD

Hi :

Sorry about that, there isnt much documentation on that subject as yet. You should make the blank to the size shown in the information for outside diameter
of that gear on the project screen. The stock display is rather loose in that its just trying to make a blank for display, Ill check why its saying differently, but your stock should be the same size as whatever is reported as the external diameter. All cuts are based on that.

Thx

just an alternative, now that it displays for me,  :D
