Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use GearDXF SVGs directly with a Glowforge laser cutter?

Yes! GearDXF SVGs use clean stroke paths that Glowforge software automatically interprets as cut paths with no need to weld or break apart vectors.

How do I scale an SVG gear without altering its gear ratio?

Gears only mesh correctly when they share the same Module or Diametral Pitch. If you scale an SVG visually in Illustrator, you scale both pitch and teeth, requiring both gears to be scaled together.

Does the SVG support spoke styling?

Yes, decorative and weight-saving spokes (arms, circles, teardrops, and ellipses) are cleanly embedded directly into the SVG path contour.
