Color:

The Geneva drive or Maltese cross is a gear mechanism that translates a continuous rotation into an intermittent rotary motion. The rotating drive wheel has a pin that reaches into a slot of the driven wheel advancing it by one step. The drive wheel also has a raised circular blocking disc that locks the driven wheel in position between steps.

I graduated from mechanical engineering. I am a 3D designer and I work in CAD software ThinkDesign for about 8 years now. Solid and surface modelling isn't an issue for me. :) Now with the 3D printing technology I can print my work and contribute something to the 3D printing community. 3D modelling and printing is my passion and I am trying to design useful models which can we use on a daily basis.
