  • Someone will probably come up with a simpler method, but here's one for a simple cogwheel:

    1) Make a bar the width you want the tooth of the wheel to be and center it in a circle that is the outer diameter of your cog.

    2) Find the intersect of the two shapes. This makes the top of the tooth rounded.

    3) Copy, rotate and center as many teeth as you need.

    4) Weld them together.

    5) Create a circle the size of the inner diameter of the cog, and center it on the teeth.

    6) weld it all together.

    If wanted, put a smaller circle centered on the wheel and extrude for 3D if desired.
