I've been using FreeCAD for a while now. Started looking for a way to design a 1/16 bevel gear setup everywhere. Never got any idea how. You just gave me the means to do so THANK YOU very much. You also gave me a learning curve like the North face of the Eiger to get to the point of doing my own design. I'll first copy yours exactly. However, you showed me it is possible. Thanks again for a very nicely structured video.

1/16 is huge step with bevel gears in the real word I rarely see much more than 1/6 The ring and it’s shaft will have to be very rigid

@@jacquesfavre999 Hi Jacques, thanks for your reply. The large gear (preliminary teeth count 224) will be affixed to the bottom of a 60cm diameter display platter carrying a light load intended to slowly rotate and stop at predetermined angles. I'm going to use a fairly large diameter, single row, deep groove ball bearing (diameters: 17mm inner and 40mm outer) laid on its side instead of an axle for the large gear. The pinion gear will be affixed to a mounted 60rpm 12v DC motor with speed control. A question though. Is there a way to keep the pitch angle at 45 degrees for such a ratio? I've read the principles and they seem to require two complete cones with one pitch apex yet I cannot understand why the pitch apex of the pinion gear is not made to correspond with the side (equivalent in length/height to the pinion pitch apex) of a truncated cone of the large gear. The maths seem to allow for that but I've not seen it discussed anywhere. The only difference seems to the be that the large gear's diameter and teeth count becomes unlimited with a truncated large gear cone. The sum total of my knowledge on bevel gears, and gears, is microscopic however so I might have missed entire libraries of knowledge.

Only a ratio of 1/1 will be 45 degree For1/16 the angle will be in that ratio too

This was a great tutorial, exactly what I was looking for. I'm also new to FreeCAD so this taught me quite a lot. The boolean operations blew my mind. Thank you!

One hint: you an use the "reset_origin" property of the bevel-gear to have (0,0,0) as center of the cone. This helps with creating the construction of the geometry.

This seems fantastic. One problem , we with poor eye sight can not follow the very SMALL and so FAST pointer. If possible can you increase the pointer size and maybe to a red color. At least then it will not disappear. Thanks a lot

I am sorry for the speed, I want to keep the video short and interesting. Do you know that you can slow it down at your end? Do you have the quality setting on high? I did slightly increase the size of pointer, and black is what works best for me Thanks for the comment.

My only suggestion is to slowwwwww down in the beginning. I'm a fast dude and this was when a professional shows you how to do what they do and they fly through the steps. Good video otherwise but I definitely had some frustration. Also announce hotkeys if you use them. I struggled through this and merely slowing down and extending it to 15 minutes would have reduced my time on it from 5 hours to at least 2. For tutorials, it's worth slowing down. I watched at .25 speed for a good chunk of it and still had to play it several times. I learned a lot from your tutorial and still gave a thumbs up. It was a push, my experience is pretty limited with freecad though. To someone more experienced it probably isn't too bad

when I use the bevel gear option and change the height, the angle changes even though it is set to 45. This kind of confused me. Is it an issue with the workbench or the way I am using it?
