    Scaling a Gear Pattern

    Hi, I am new to this forum, and am a student at Iowa State University. I have a project due this friday, I am trying to redesign the basic analog clock by using this geneva-wheel assembly, where the small drive would have a second hand attached to it, and the large gear would be the minute hand, I can get the rest from there. But I have this assembly from a previous project, and I want to know if there is anyway I can make the large gear have 60 slots in it (60 minutes in an hour). Is this possible?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    You need to post this in the Inventor discussion group, not customer
    files. You will also need to post all the relevant files (zipped and
    under 1.5 MB) for this assembly, along with the version of inventor
    used. The attached assembly does not contain the part, only links to the
    external part files.

    Okay thank you, sorry I posted it in the wrong forum, but thank you for being nice and accepting about it. It is now in the right place, I'll see if I can delete this thread. Also, if you know how to do it, would you mind leaving some feedback or instructions in the correct post? I included a zipped folder with all the parts and assembly.

    Thanks,
    Mike
