Let us have a little artistic approach to gears this time, shall we? Come with us and we will show you the amazing wooden work of Clayton Boyer! He has made a video for us where he demonstrates all sorts of differently shaped gears! He has made wooden gears in various shapes! Starting from square, pentagonal or oval, to organic shapes! The best thing about all this is that they ACTUALLY WORK! Until today, dear Gearheads, we have lived in a world where we thought Gears are only round! Well, you for one will sure be amazed by the work of Clayton Boyer!!! The craftsmanship of Clayton Boyer is beyond incredible, and we are more than happy to show it to everyone on this website! Watching them as they spin and mesh perfectly is truly mesmerizing.
There is a lot to be seen. As you watch this footage, you will get to many points that will leave your jaw-dropped! Such as the moment where three or even more non-round gears actually mesh! Transmission, however, really is possible with these crafted wooden gears! You will recognize some shapes, such as the Planetary Gearset that is, as you know, found in transmissions as well! We have probably told you more than we should have! It is up to you to see it for yourself! Enjoy the show!!! Let us know what your favorite wooden gears were! For us, we really liked the one with the shark carved inside the center gear, which is surrounded by 5 fish-shaped wooden gears! The choice will be hard, but we are certain that at least one wooden gear set will leave you in awe!
