Some nice ideas and limit switches seem to be effective. However, the indexing/dividing still needs work. It is quite difficult and seems to be a fundamental problem with all these DIY systems. To his credit, he did not try to cover it up or obfuscate the accuracy as done by some others.

Yes, I am aware of this problem. the fact is that I did not accurately enough made the dividing disk. The machine itself works very accurately, now I am making a new disk and after installing it I will shoot another video where I will make perfect gears. this video presents the very idea of an automatic machine
This is one nice machine with a bucket full of ideas for a low end gear maker. Thanks for posting.Quote:

I agree, stepper motor and arduino. It's very simple. The idea was that everything would work on pure mechanics. I enjoy creating such projects. they have a soul
Congratulations My MiniCrafts - your Small Gear Cutter is the Homemade Tool of the Week!
This is a useful little machine; it will be interesting to see further iterations to perfect the dividing.
