Valentine Heart Gear with gearify software

thingiverse

Best Valentine's Day wishes. This is a test of the Gearify software, located at http://gearifysoftware.com/. Due to my trial version, accuracy may not be entirely reliable. The software normally runs on Windows, but I've conducted this test using Linux and Wine. This design isn't perfect; it's an experiment aimed at learning how to create custom gears. To assemble the gear, use long pins at the four edges, short pins at the heart gear, a crank at the midpoint, and then print it in PLA. After printing, carefully cut or sandpaper the edges of the printbed side to ensure smooth movement. Lubricate moving parts with a small amount of vaseline, and you may need to glue fixed joint points. For more information on the design process, visit https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2791098.
