Sprocket drawing program?
Hi folks - I need to make some sprockets and there is a shareware program that will draw them for you and I have forgotten it's name. Old age senility setting in yet again. Anyone remember what program that is and where to find it?

The post Gamelord attached works fine but if you are just cutting for gear shapes for a sign as shown I would use Inkscape as you can then save it in SVG or DXF and your ready to cut.

Re: Sprocket drawing program?
I have used Sprocketeer to design gears and it worked very well. I haven't tried Inkscape as Acourtjester suggests, but it seems like it should work good also. I have also used the program in the link below, and it worked very well also.
