Nice video i have been looking for a good explanation of a sliding mesh gear box. Ther is one thing however... Normally in practical gear boxes of this type the 1:1 ratio is achieved by locking the input and output shafts. In your example 3rd gear would be a ratio between second and direct drive. And the 3rd gear on the output shaft can slide right across and bridge the splines of the input and output shafts making a direct 1:1 drive without the need for any gears. This also has the advantage that direct drive is quiet, since straight cut gears are noisy when under load. This gear noise is something that drivers of vehicles with sliding mesh gearboxes actually enjoy!!
