@@ringofdeath13 Well I wish other UA-cam videos were this well done. Most just ramble on, unscripted. Some even end up in failure, yet they were posted. It almost seems UA-cam posters get paid by the minute. Lately, many videos have titles that are outright lies, clickbait. I look at comments during the first minute. If there is a negative, I drop out.
Matthias, I remember seeing your webpage in the 90s with various contraptions, including the old wasp trap. Great to see you're still inventing and teaching.
probably do already but in case you didnt know this video inadvertently created an amazing music machine, song and music video made by wintergratan, i just watched his how it was made video and he referenced this as where he learned to create the gears and then decided to make the machine. i instantly recognized the name mattias wandel as i was already subscribed :)
Love it. Watching it with my visiting 23 y.o. daughter. Building a shop in next year or so, as this hobby has become an obsession! Great vids, thank you!
What a fantastic resource. I've often fancied trying this after watching your videos, but getting accurate gears made up sounded off-putting. Thank-you!
Hello Matthias'm a fan of his inventions, congratulations on creativity, as every viewer have rsrsrs questions and expectations ... 1 -all their projects are designed in SketchUp? 2-put there a video your developing a gear in SketchUp and printing the project? greetings from Nova Friburgo Brazil.
I always thought that gear making is a tedious task until I watched this video of your. You make it look simple and easy! I really enjoyed the video and thank a lot for sharing it. :-)
Thank you Mathias, your name suggests that your ancestors are German. Means that is why you got the engineering skills ;). I really like your work and that you share your woodworking skills with others. Keep up your good work. And thank you very much for sharing. Wuensche alles Gute und weiterhin viel Glueck bei Deinen Projekten, John
I am very impressed with your way of simply making wood geaars adn plan to use this to make a gear set for a rope maker for my son's Boy Scout troop. Should not need beveling angles for flat mesh but will work will as it is basic gears...
@Matthiaswandel Hey thanks I found it and also see that you have the option to evaluate the program which I think is great. The planetary gears look incredible. This looks like a must have program, looking forward to trying it out.
I think that if you drill the hole first in the center and then make a pivot on the band saw with a sliding table, the teeth would come out more uniform as you would not have to align the gear exactly on every tooth.
Thomas Edison said genius is 20 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration. I think this qualifies because he developed a software program to do this which took a lot of time. He also developed his woodworking skills to the point that he became able to do this repeatedly.
Do you just have threaded rods running through the gear to move the jig forwards and backwards??? Gonna make a simple jig for work, that was the first thought I had other than making a simple notched piece of hardwood to run along a single gear. Thanks man, this is an a lot easier and more efficient mechanical method for a jig than I've seen elsewhere haha bravo!
Very stunning. Don't you think it could be useful to add (by software) a radial line in the middle between two teeth in order to have a mark where point the awl? Thank's for your videos.
Here is a simple suggestion for making the hole cutting go faster. Instead of using an awl to punch a small hole between each teeth, drill the center hole and put a 5/16 bolt through into the drill press sacrificial table, then just align the first hole and spin the gear to put in the rest.
Hey Mathias. I recently purchased your Screw advance Box Joint Jig and it turned out pretty good. Thank you for the great instructions. I have now tried to n=make additional gears but when I print them out the squares on template are not 1 cm. they are one tenth over or under the required measurement. Any Suggestions.
I saw a trick where a guy used carpet tape to stick his templates to the wood so the the paper would come off to problem. Please up vote so he can see.
I think you're talking about ring gears. If so, just print out the proper gear size that you'll need and paste it onto a slightly larger circular piece of wood. Cut out the INSIDE as opposed to the outside.
Anyone know if it would work making these out of hardwood? The ones I want to make will be hand cranked and never very fast. Will wood expansion make them bind?
So I want to make my gears out of metal to pull a couple of pulleys however I want to make it much larger than what a printer can print it out as any advice...
What weight can take plywood gear of that size? Will it be capable to hold bed in the air - I want to sliding it from the ceiling? I cant find any ratchet mechanisms that will fit my need on the market... :/
I don't sacrifice function for thrift. I just buy when I come across a good deal. Most of my purchases weren't really necessary to begin with. I also like to demonstrate that you don't need the latest toy from Festool to do a good job.
matthias, is the box joint plans all printable to glue on ? Im gonna get this, gonna help so much with things im making!. Gonna use this to start making my deep C reach clamps!
What kind of plywood do you use? Where do you get it? At 3:35 when you are filing, the plywood appears to be equal to a solid wood. In fact, it almost appears petrified - almost stone-like. The plywood I use, such as Birch Plywood (NOT Baltic Birch - just plywood laminated with Birch) has actual wood fibers between each layer. My plywood seems much less compressed. It's so hard to explain what mine is, but to sum it up - my plywood is normal! LOL Yours isn't normal. Like I said, it is solid, stone-like and really has no texture in the different plys. What kind of plywood is that??? Thanks!!!
Hmm... I tried this not having a press drill, a band saw, or any skills. The gears came out looking like mutilated flowers wobbling like a drunkard hula-hooping.
Can you please make a video on how to make a manual crank sit stand table. With your expertise i am so excited to see it so that i can build my own stand sit table for my laptop and pc. Thank you and You Sir Really Are Amazing thank your for your inspirational shares.
Definitely not. My drill press cost I think around $160. Before I got that one, I used one of those really small drill presses that can sometimes be had for as low as $45.
I have an article about beginnging woodworking on woodgears.ca.Best to ue the search box on the front pae to find it (sorry, can't include URLs in youtube comments)
Mathias, High marks for how well you explained and demonstrated your gear making design; and may I say, made what I anticipated would be a most boring presentation, rather...enjoyable?!...well-done & thx for making it great...Q: r u a boy-scout?
FYI Folks, you'll have to practice making these gears to ensure they work properly. Don't expect to make your first set of gears without the possibility of binding problems
One of the best demos I've ever seen on UA-cam! Clear and concise. Great job, Matthias!
is it still the best demo in the past 10 years ?

I own an 8000 ft shop, I have been working with wood , building cabinets for 24 years. You are very talented, I am impressed/ depressed ;)
My goodness. I can (and will) watch your videos all day.
What a fantastic resource. I've often fancied trying this after watching your videos, but getting accurate gears made up sounded off-putting. Thank-you!
Crazy to be paid for your hard work and clever innovations.
Your stuff is awesome! I am always amazed at what you show us how do in such a simple way with such simple tools!

So inspiring, but to get necessary tools for production becomes a problem. This is one way of putting somebody into a lucrative job.
I always thought that gear making is a tedious task until I watched this video of your. You make it look simple and easy! I really enjoyed the video and thank a lot for sharing it. :-)
you are the responsible of woodengears.ca??? man you save me with my college projects! THANK YOU

Excellent video. I had no idea how gears are made or could be made. I feel slightly smarter.
From Toronto, Canada.
Fahad
Now I can finally build my personal trebuchet , onager, cho ko nu, Scorpion, and so on
have you ever made a clock? using only wooden gears?
What an insanely awesome jig!

I like your video of wood gear. It is simple. Paste drawing on wood. And cut according to drawing. Your presentation is really very nice.
amigo permitame felicitarlo por esos trabajos tan bien echos
Incredible work Matthias!
You sir, are a genius! :)
Will make use of your gear templates for a home made CNC machine.
Thanks!
Very stunning. Don't you think it could be useful to add (by software) a radial line in the middle between two teeth in order to have a mark where point the awl? Thank's for your videos.
Varathane diamond floor varnish, as I mention in the linked article.
You can reply to people comments in the comments reply section.
(Like this one)
I wish I had a shop like yours!
I purchased this software and it is perfect !!!! Thanks this is the best!!
T shirtwetter sir can you share me this software ...bcs I dnt buy this one ....
Ateeque Mughal I'll buy a copy for you
You used double vertical gears to eliminate slop and play, right?
Thanks for all these awesome videos by the way.
1:20 it would be a good idea to add the drilling points to the software so it's included on the printout
Thanx so much for this video, I cant find what I want, now I can and WILL make em! Well done, easy whys & wherefores. 👏😁good tips, saftey first!
THANKS FOR UPLOADING THIS VIDEO
I HAVE LEARNED IT VERY SINCERLY
you are the smartest science guy i know
Wonderful stuff, just wonderful!
Very impressive! I wish I had more time to do woodworking.
Very clever!
Thank you SOOOOOOOO much.
So clear
So concise
Much appreciated
Here is a simple suggestion for making the hole cutting go faster. Instead of using an awl to punch a small hole between each teeth, drill the center hole and put a 5/16 bolt through into the drill press sacrificial table, then just align the first hole and spin the gear to put in the rest.
Nicholas Tinling Punching a center hole is more accurate, because the point of the drill will naturally follow it.
Matthias Wandel Except punching the center hole for the gear teeth is done by eye which, in my view, is just as inaccurate as a wandering bit.
Very informative, mr. Wandel! Thank you for posting!
exelente video realmente un aporte para mi cerebro... gracias por compartir esto
Thks Mr Gear PhD; ???Have you try making gears on a CNC machine (plasma/router/laser/etc cutter)???
Que lindo , porque ya esta traducido, gracias por el subtitulo en Español
Neato frito!
Well, but what was the total for each? Right now, doubling my development effort for a 10% increase in sales is just not worth it.
Great demo
Yet another winner. Thanks.
Everyone:gears
Me:Pink sticky gears :P
Thank you SO much! This is really an incredible thing you've done and it is VERY much appreciated!
Yes, see the program.
Hey Mathias. I recently purchased your Screw advance Box Joint Jig and it turned out pretty good. Thank you for the great instructions. I have now tried to n=make additional gears but when I print them out the squares on template are not 1 cm. they are one tenth over or under the required measurement. Any Suggestions.
Best to read the printing instructions in the plans.
Hello, can you tell me which software do you use to make the parts please? thank you and congratulations to you!
VERY VERY BUT VERY USEFULL !!!! THANKS !
I saw a trick where a guy used carpet tape to stick his templates to the wood so the the paper would come off to problem. Please up vote so he can see.
also, use contact cement to stick it and then use acetone and it comes right off. Do it all the time in my cabinetshop.
I think you're talking about ring gears. If so, just print out the proper gear size that you'll need and paste it onto a slightly larger circular piece of wood. Cut out the INSIDE as opposed to the outside.
i see this on august 2020....and my project cleary begin
Anyone know if it would work making these out of hardwood? The ones I want to make will be hand cranked and never very fast. Will wood expansion make them bind?
amazing job
Wow this is awesome !
Matthias, I was wondering two questions. 1. what kind of varnish do you use? and 2. do you like linseed oil?
Nice tutorial ....thank you
woow, now i gonna make a wood robot, thanks man finally
Very good
Great video!
it feels like art to me..:)
So I want to make my gears out of metal to pull a couple of pulleys however I want to make it much larger than what a printer can print it out as any advice...
Buy a bigger printer or have an office store print them for you.
AMAZING!!!!! Nice Job!!!!
Another Great genius
Cool. l learnt a lots from your video. Appreciate!
Good job
Whatever you planet you are from, I hope to visit it someday.
What weight can take plywood gear of that size? Will it be capable to hold bed in the air - I want to sliding it from the ceiling? I cant find any ratchet mechanisms that will fit my need on the market... :/
You know...I wonder if some enterprising home foundryman couldn't use these as patterns for a metal casting! =D
Yep me too tried jsing a coping saw by hand, came out like crap...using poplar boardthough. May not work good for boards tho.
Thanks, this is very usefull
I use your gear template generator often, use gears on alot of my jigs and contraptions.. Huge Thankyou! You have saved me many hours of work..
Do you think it will work with MDF?

Ah... Nothing better than finding a little unwatched back catalog. Thanks for sharing a decade ago! You’ve come a long way. Cheers! 🍻👍🏻😊
Hi, I just finished cutting some gears using the your gear generator for templates. Thank you so much. The gears are amazing. Keep up the good work!

As a hula hooping drunkard, I fantasize much about non mutilated gear flowers
and now you know how some "art" is created. congratulations!
You may use copying sar to get the job done
should turn your own screws with a section without threads.Brass rod with tap and die set will take no time.
If you have that kind of patience. I'll make one in 15 minutes, you, 15 hours.
Incredible work Matthias... Thanks for sharing!

The pantorouter is not the right tool for making gears. Actually, a router is generally not the best tool, a bandsaw works best.
Muy bueno el video y las explicaciones. Gracias..!! Saludos desde las sierras de Córdoba Argentina...!! 👍👌💪🇦🇷
Mathias, High marks for how well you explained and demonstrated your gear making design; and may I say, made what I anticipated would be a most boring presentation, rather...enjoyable?!...well-done & thx for making it great...Q: r u a boy-scout?
I make mine on a cnc mill. See my videos.
Definitely not the program. Maybe your laser cutter. Laser printers can also distort a bit. Just print it with an ink jet printer.
C# and .net.
It's a pretty good system, just no way to port it to non-windows.
You can use a scrollsaw too. Just that it cuts a bit slower.
Or you could look up my bandsaw plans and build your own bandsaw!
okeh
have you got any updates to this subject? saw this video ages ago and just looked it up again. Realized it's already 10 years old!
FYI Folks, you'll have to practice making these gears to ensure they work properly. Don't expect to make your first set of gears without the possibility of binding problems
there should be a lasercutter version of similar software. I'm lazy.
