Can I constrain tow pulleys/gears with a ratio?
Can I constrain tow pulleys/gears with a ratio?
(OP)
Hello,
Is there a way to constrain two pulleys with a ratio such that if I grab one and drag it to rotate it on it's axis, the other pulley/gear also rotates with a ratio?

Just set the value of the second expression to be double (or triple, or whatever ratio) of the value of the expression driving the first angular constraint, if constrained from a parallel reference, or the ratio +/- an offset if the references are not parallel.
Does that make sense?
