    Default Formatting the standard toolbox spur gear

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Does anyone know how to modify the standard spur gear that comes with Toolbox? I'd like to enter my own values for pressure angle, pitch, etc. but I'm not sure how to do that.

    Thanks!

    I assume you are asking about Solidworks, so I moved your question here. Just post a message if it was a wrong decision.

    Tip: Please do not PM or email me with CAD questions - use the forums, you'll get an answer sooner.

    I made a few videos on modeling gears.

    When you drag a spur gear from the toolbox into your assembly you should get a properties window on the left in your feature tree that lets you adjust all the properties of the gear that are available.
