This YouTube video showcases a drawing made through a spreadsheet using several gears, specifically 1640 turns on the input gear. Each step was of 6 degrees, resulting in a spreadsheet with 98,401 lines that represent the points in the drawing. The model was created using Solidworks 2015 and rendered in Simlab Composer 6 Mechanical Edition. The video frames were edited with Virtualdub, saved as AVI/X264 and BMP files. Subsequently, the video was remuxed to MP4 format with MyMP4BoxGui. Gifs were made using GifApp, and renders were edited in IrfanView. Notably, the 3D-PDF, ZIM, and SIMLAB files are all animated, with the ZIM file viewable on iOS and Android devices via the Simlab Viewer app. The model is available in multiple formats such as Solidworks 2015, Simlab Composer 6, DAE, STEP, IGES, STL, Parasolid, OBJ, 3D-PDF, SketchUp, 3DS, and ZIM.
