The generator used to make complicated tile-able gear messes is now
available, as promised. You will find it here:

Thanks to Serge for his tests and [win]dos binaries.

Looks good - Haven't downloaded it yet, though.
Just one question - Do they animate well ?

No. It wasn't the idea, and doing so makes it mandatory to keep the
product of all the radii ratios for each axis equal to one. And there
are other issues with animation periodicity if the anim is intended to
loop. IMHO all of these problems can be solved and this package can be a
good starting point: at least the gears are at the right place!

Is everything I'd need to get it animatable in the download ? Like
source for the C code ? (sorry haven't got round to downloading it yet)

Source code is GPL'ed (although I should make it clearer in the code
itself).
E-mail me if you want some ideas about how to animate it and the issues
this raises.

OK, cool. I may well e-mail you if I get round to getting the download
(I've innumerable other projects 'on the go' atm).
