Hmm! I'm getting a lot of this:

Das angeforderte Dokument ist nicht vorhanden.
The requested URL could not be found.
And the one that did download wouldn't display, even in VLC. :(

I thought you might be interested in :
https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/gear-ratios-to-gear-tooth-count.803389/
as well as the link to the gear train calculators:
http://www.scientific601.altervista.org/gear.html
(Which was what I was trying to describe a while back)

All of the planets are pictured stationary in their orbits
(I suppose I did that for simplicity at the time)
All of the white objects are the 655,000+ "minor planets" in the asteroid belt
getting animated over the span of 1 year
