Get My Free Workbench Plans: paskmakes.com/limited-time-free-workbench-plans I may have got carried away a little with this project but it really was fun! Although, I'm looking forward to making something else! Any advice on adding a motor is very welcome. And I forgot to mention that the gear ratio is 1:5. :)
Thank you so much for the free plans Mr. Pask. Bearings would be a huge help with the friction but as for the motor it’s self I’m not sure. I’m just like you I’m over the moon that it works. That is by far one of your best creations yet.
I'm not sure if this is an engineering project, a craft project or an art project...but it is fantastic! Thanks for taking us along on this journey. The propeller is my favorite, but the aging and rusting techniques for the gears are amazing. You are definitely an artist. And a craftsman. And an engineer.
I agree! I’m an art student and the first thing I thought was “this would be a really great art installation.” Definitely exploring the boundaries between arts, crafts, and engineering!
The escalation of this project since the first cog is has turned it into one of the best series you’ve made. It’s be really fun to see a slow turning motor attached & learn the process along side ~ even if your not an expert neither are the viewers. (Angry commenters don’t count)
I love the weathering of the first cog with the rubbed off paint! Also, with that high gear ratio and access to the back, hide the motor behind the propeller and drive it backwards. Smaller motor needed and you can create a clever small man with a “Pask Makes” likeness “driving” the first cog. Love it!!!
I never miss your videos. Not because I have any interest in wood or metal shop work, but because you (and the pandemic) have triggered a renewed interest in sewing for me. I used to sew as a teenager. Now, at 65, I have started again. It has been very rewarding, and I thank you. Your videos remind me of the joy of using good tools, techniques, and materials. You embrace the fun of planning a project, then adjusting plans, and coping with mistakes and setbacks. And, of course, appreciating the finished product. Again, thank you.
...and congratulations on your "propeller and cogs" project. It is delightful! Now I am off to sew a bathrobe for my sister for a Christmas gift. 👍🙋♀️
I know you are part of the makers community but your work is on another level. This could be proudly displayed in a gallery as art. There is so much more I could say, but that's what art does.
I really like how they are all different. It looks like you found them scattered around different junk yards and put them all together. My favorite design is the one down at the bottom.
As always I had a grin on my face from start to finish. It is funny that I realize I am grinning about half way through your videos; never fails. I am so grateful there are folks like you on the planet. Sharing your prowess and expertise with us is so satisfying to watch. Thanks Niel .
Brilliant! A testament to your creativity, ingenuity, and steadfastness - characteristics of a true craftsman. It was difficult to select a favorite, but I eventually settled on the first one for the shear art of it standing alone. When they all work together, though, my eye is drawn to the rustiest one with your logo.
Well said about the testament!! Actually my eye was drawn to the Hammer tone blue one but the rusty logo is tops in my book and the first one a close second. Functional Eye candy of epic proportion.
Pick a favorite? No way, I love them all. This is in my opinion the most impressive work you’ve done so far. Not only because of your skill, patience and great craftsmanship, but because it was fun. We need more fun in our lives. You gave that to us with this project. Thank you. 😀
If a person didn't get close and hasn't seen these videos they would never know all of those were made of wood. Looks amazing, and I'm glad you enjoyed doing it. I know I enjoyed watching it all come together.
I follow and enjoy watching a number of youtube woodworkers and makers. The reason I truly enjoy and can't wait for your videos is that you make what you're interested in. It really comes through. Too many of the other makers and woodworkers on RUclips seem to post things they think I'll be interested in. It's much more entertaining and enjoyable to watch someone do something they really enjoy and have an interest in, no matter what the project is.
Enjoyed? doesn't begin to sum it up! Blown away & amazed, Neil. This was a sensational series and I've loved every minute! The fully 'rusted' cog is my fave too, the hub and lettering look incredibly realistic. I've seen many tricks&tips on youtube but that moment where you routed the rim with a shallow cut, then used the piece as its own template - made me smile. Neil turned the first cog and all the rest began to turn, the propeller too, began to spin and as it reached speed...the wall flew away!
I have learned alot from watching you, I do have to say this has been my favorite series so far. You did an awesome job on those gears they are fantastic!
Wowza. I was looking forward to this build and you blew me away! Not only do they mesh appropriately and turn the prop, but I love that each cog is different. What a beautiful piece of sculpture. And I'm glad you put your name on it, that was the perfect touch. Well done! And thank you for sharing. (I like the fully rusted one, BTW.)
Fantastic display. I wasn't sure about the rusted metal deco on just the second cog, but doing the others all differently brings it together. It gives a vibe like you always had a set of various metal cogs and replaced/filled one space with your own wood cog. I love how that subtly gives the propeller, wood cog, and cog series their own presence as separate projects.
I admire your patience. Building that installation, just for the sake of building it, as it serves no practical purpose, must have required a lot of determination and perseverance. Looks great too.
Just an FYI, (I’m sure you already know) you can load windows 10 as a separate operating environment (even use an external drive to install to for space and application separation). That would allow you to run the Dos or windows apps and have the best of both worlds. Thanks for sharing your video, time and knowledge with us! This Texan tips his hat to you sir!
I like the blue one most. Has a nice industrial touch, looks like one of a cogs I see everyday at railway service at work on one of the machines. Really cool project.
Well I'm utterly speechless Neil. The work that went into this project is special and the finished article is absolutely fantastic. It's incredibly difficult to choose a favourite because they all look like metal so really and truly, the effect is outstanding. A wonderful video mate and well worth waiting for. 👍🏻👍🏻👏
@16:09 that little stencil transfer trick is ingenious!! I'm definitely going to have to give this a try. 👍👍 My favorite is the one with the hammered finished blue paint, it looks awesome.
Just fantastic. Can't say I have a favorite gear, though. They're all pretty awesome and it was really fun to watch the whole thing come together. As for being hard to turn, the first thing I noted is that you didn't take any notes from Clickspring about spacing things out so they mesh properly. A couple sheets of cardboard isn't the "proper" depthing gauge, my friend. I would recommend you put some paste wax on the teeth to help they glide across each other better. I use Johnson's Paste Floor Wax, but I'm sure Australia has something similar. It's really great for creating a slick surface, especially if you build it up. With as much wood-to-wood contact as you have there, you're looking at a ton of friction that needs lubing.
I am late seeing this one...but you are SO talented and entertaining to watch and learn from. I am sure you have heard it many times, but you could be the most patient and dedicated person I have ever watched. Thank you for you videos!
Looking great! You can try hiding a small electric motor behind the propeller, or maybe on the other side of the wall. Since the gear ratio is 1:5, i think it would be easier to motorize at the propeller itself, and not at any other gear.
Was going to say this. A motor at the "driving" cog would need to be ridiculously over-spec. Driving the prop side from behind would give you the slow turn with a much less beefy motor and it would still appear that the first cog was connected to the source of power.
Great project, great too see all the work come together. I would suggest mounting them all on roller bearing thou. Otherwise that friction is a killer. Perhaps you could try making a helical gear?😬 Again great stuff.
Thanks very much Joe! I thought at the start I should mount them with bearings but I was trying to keep it simple and thought I could always do that later on if it was needed. :)
Neil, That's just brilliant. Great job and I suspect many don't realise that just because you make it look so easy, there's still a lot of work in all of that. Thanks for yet another series of entertaining videos.
As soon as you made the first gear, I knew it would be used to spin the propeller. Great work! Your craftsmanship is stellar and your eye for making functional and beautiful woodworks is top notch
Sorry, ich kann kein englisch. Ich finde das Projekt erstklassik. Diese Geduld sowas zu bauen würde ich nie aufbringen, Hut ab. Es sieht einfach fantastisch aus, die Zahnräder sehen wie echt aus Metall aus. Bin echt begeistert.
So only thing left is a couple of hands for a giant clock and a motor built in to run off solar and you will have a large wooden clock for the shop! You have amazing patience and a wild ability to do repetitive work that is unmatched! From the gears to the kumiko you must be fantastic at large puzzles!!! I could actually see you enjoying cutting each piece by hand and fitting each one. Always impressive!
Hi! Jim from Portland, Oregon again. I've commented once on this project already. Love the finished set! Just wanted to let you know that your work has been a great inspiration to me. I'm a long-time pizza cook by trade, but I've been an amateur carpenter and craftsman for my whole adult life. I find your videos entertaining as well as informative. I appreciate that you occasionally admit when you've made a mistake and then describe your efforts to ameliorate the issue. That hits close to home with me because I experiment a Lot. Looking forward to watching more of your work! J.
Always a treat watching your woodworking videos, but this was something else. Seeing you engage in some scenic painting was truly a delight. I hope you tap into that world again later. Cheers!
Blue and the bare wood are my favs. Really fun, attractive project! Would love to see you build the dining table or kitchen island projects you mentioned in previous vids
Turned out beautifully. Pick 1? The WHOLE lot!! Okay, same rusty as you chose. Really very nice. Put a crank handle on the ‘First’ cog, and locking wire on the prop bolts 😁.
I agree you nailed the rusted effect on that cog,I think you definitely need a motor just so you can enjoy the sound of the gears meshing sounds like a grist mill at work. Nice work Pask.
We all need to do a project once in a while for no reason other than it being fun and a challenge. This has been so much fun to watch! My two favorites are the one with the hammer finish and the first one with the wavy spokes.
Brilliant, Awesome and Amazing! They all look great but I like the one where you went the extra mile and added you name. One should always sign there work. Kudos!!
Great job Neal! I don't have a favourite cog. They all have their own "personality". Sunday mornings are always great when there is a new Pask Makes video to watch!
I like the fully rusted one best as well. But they are all works of art. Have you been dreaming gears for the last weeks? You have amazing talent and patience. Hats off to you mate.
Rather surprised that you painted most of the cogs, and after seeing the final reveal was quite pleased! Happy there's one remaining in the natural wood look. Well done, as always, Pask! Cheers!
You sir, are a true artist, evidently, driven by perfection. Yes, ask some friends about using a pulley and electric motor to spin these gears without the laborious task of hand-spinning these. Great job!
cool transfer technique for the lettering. I'm not sure if I've ever seen that. So simple and effective. Really enjoying this series. I picked up the plans and will share once I've made it.
So cool Neil! The whole assembly together and the variety. Mr favorite is probably the rusted one and the blue. Perhaps, a motor in back of the wall (with the switch on the front) to drive a shaft through the propeller, or the rusty one? And, clear grease on the teeth? Great fun!!
I made a set if wood gears for a Mech eng school project. (Nothing compared to this.) Alot of fun. It blows you away when you have them all set up and doing work. Great job on the fit and finish of yours! Amazing work.
Chuffing’ awesome. How you find the patience to finish these projects is beyond me. You asked for opinions on favourites, difficult, but I would have to go for the hammertone blue one. The blue in conjunction with the rust effect…brilliant. Thanks mate.
Looks absolutely awesome. It makes such a nice centerpiece in the workshop. If I may give a tip. Buy a bootle of graphite lubricant. The dusty stuff and apply it on the teeth when it is spinning. It will leave a metallic edge on the parts where it is touching. That is what I use when I make scale models. Something different. But kinda the same
That is really cool. I definitely like the cog with your name on it the best. It really does look like a metal cog. The sound when all the gears are moving is pretty cool too. You don't hear big machinery sounds like that very often anymore.
Amazing! I have never seen of rusting paint before. One usually spends a lot of time removing rust. I must say the effect it makes is terrific! And yes, do add a motor. I would suggest a car windshield wiper motor but I think that would be too small and too noisy. Whatever motor you choose, may I suggest you mount it behind the wall in a sound-proofed box. Silently rotating gears and prop in your videos would be so cool!
Favorites: - blue cog as it suit the color scheme of your workshop - full timber cog - it shows the tremendous care for details Now you can add a pulley with a counterweight so you can make propeller move some air hands free, summer is coming! Great project that we all enjoy!!

I may have got carried away a little with this project but it really was fun! Although, I'm looking forward to making something else!
Any advice on adding a motor is very welcome. And I forgot to mention that the gear ratio is 1:5. :)
I encourage you to get even more carried away!
I have to say I like the one with the curved spokes, I dont know why, but it reminds me of Victorian Era flywheels
Absolutely Fantastic Craftsmanship and design Ingenuity! They’re all special in their own way!
Thanks for the free plans! Christmas is coming and it will make a great gift! Sending lots of love 💖 from sunny 🌞 Arizona 🌵😷
Thank you so much for the free plans Mr. Pask.

What a sick man. Makes 2 of us.🤗

I completely agree Jay. I said something very similar in his last video connected with this series
Glad you enjoyed it Jay! I'm definitely thinking of adding a motor! :)
Jay, exactly! He’s such a good teacher because he appears to be one of us. Although we know that’s not true! ;-)
I love the weathering of the first cog with the rubbed off paint! Also, with that high gear ratio and access to the back, hide the motor behind the propeller and drive it backwards. Smaller motor needed and you can create a clever small man with a “Pask Makes” likeness “driving” the first cog. Love it!!!

YOU have turned the world from down under to upside down my friend !!!
What an amazing project that was... WOW !!!
This turned out a absolutely amazing. What a wonderful art installation to have in your shop!
Enjoyed? doesn't begin to sum it up! Blown away & amazed, Neil. This was a sensational series and I've loved every minute!

This is such a fantastic project, the raised lettering is simply awesome. Great job, fist bumps from Ontario, Canada :)
This man has mastered everything there is to master about woodworking. Great job on the gears
I have learned alot from watching you, I do have to say this has been my favorite series so far. You did an awesome job on those gears they are fantastic!
Thanks very much Lawerence! :)
I don't know if this has a practical application but the craftsmanship is amazing! Well done.

Thanks mate and thanks for the tips! I really didn't put much thought into meshing them and I really should have lubricated the hubs too. :)
You can also use wax from a candle, rubbed on, I've use it on old dresser drawers that slide on bare wood.
I am late seeing this one...but you are SO talented and entertaining to watch and learn from. I am sure you have heard it many times, but you could be the most patient and dedicated person I have ever watched. Thank you for you videos!

Great project, great too see all the work come together.

Again great stuff.
Thanks very much Joe! I thought at the start I should mount them with bearings but I was trying to keep it simple and thought I could always do that later on if it was needed. :)
This should be in a museum to educate "the kids" how things were used in the "olden Days". Spectacular work!
That’s so beautiful really awesome
Neil, That's just brilliant. Great job and I suspect many don't realise that just because you make it look so easy, there's still a lot of work in all of that. Thanks for yet another series of entertaining videos.
The ultimate in “just because I can” Projects. Turned out fantastic.
People say they can't pick a favorite, but that blue cog is mesmerizing!
This project is amazing, the craftsmanship and the attention to detail are top notch.
As soon as you made the first gear, I knew it would be used to spin the propeller. Great work! Your craftsmanship is stellar and your eye for making functional and beautiful woodworks is top notch

Well done again Neil. I prefer the gray and blue one. I've worker around old machinery most of my life and that one appeals to me.
Really really cool Pask. The fully rusted one is by far my favorite too. Looks amazing
Wow Neil! That's amazing. I love the fully rusted and labelled cog! Beautiful work.
I love the hammer finish one. And the water and spray paint method seems really useful, I'll have to try that one
You made me very happy with this project Neil. Thank you very much for a thing of beauty with for no practical reason
The fully rusted and the one with a natural finish are my favourites! Turned out amazing!
It never ceases to amaze me how work pieces that are being glued together are just bristling with clamps! ;-)
I love the full rusted affect and the hammered blue with rust affect they look fantastic 🤗🤗thanks for sharing🤗🤗
Hi! Jim from Portland, Oregon again. I've commented once on this project already. Love the finished set! Just wanted to let you know that your work has been a great inspiration to me. I'm a long-time pizza cook by trade, but I've been an amateur carpenter and craftsman for my whole adult life. I find your videos entertaining as well as informative. I appreciate that you occasionally admit when you've made a mistake and then describe your efforts to ameliorate the issue. That hits close to home with me because I experiment a Lot.
Looking forward to watching more of your work!
J.
looks great i really like the blue one but the first one that you were turning is really cool too
Always a treat watching your woodworking videos, but this was something else. Seeing you engage in some scenic painting was truly a delight. I hope you tap into that world again later.
Cheers!
That blue one is an absolute stunner. Amazing all around.
I had a huge grin at the end, watching the whole assembly turning. Beautiful work, my (just barely!) favorite is the one with the blue hammer-finish.
I absolutely love the gizmosity of this project
Gorgeous. Ingenious methodology throughout. Super impressed.
Blue and the bare wood are my favs. Really fun, attractive project! Would love to see you build the dining table or kitchen island projects you mentioned in previous vids
The propeller and gears on the wall make an interesting and fun looking wall decoration.
Turned out beautifully. Pick 1? The WHOLE lot!! Okay, same rusty as you chose. Really very nice.
Put a crank handle on the ‘First’ cog, and locking wire on the prop bolts 😁.
That whole installation is really neat, Neil. I like the cog you were turning best. Take care.
Bill
I agree you nailed the rusted effect on that cog,I think you definitely need a motor just so you can enjoy the sound of the gears meshing sounds like a grist mill at work. Nice work Pask.
What a great sculpture to show case your creativity! Excellent workmanship and a stupendous finished project.
We all need to do a project once in a while for no reason other than it being fun and a challenge. This has been so much fun to watch! My two favorites are the one with the hammer finish and the first one with the wavy spokes.
Brilliant, Awesome and Amazing! They all look great but I like the one where you went the extra mile and added you name. One should always sign there work. Kudos!!
Great job Neal! I don't have a favourite cog. They all have their own "personality".
Sunday mornings are always great when there is a new Pask Makes video to watch!
every day you raise the bar a little more, beautiful and inspiring to see your work.
I like the fully rusted one best as well. But they are all works of art. Have you been dreaming gears for the last weeks? You have amazing talent and patience. Hats off to you mate.
Rather surprised that you painted most of the cogs, and after seeing the final reveal was quite pleased! Happy there's one remaining in the natural wood look. Well done, as always, Pask! Cheers!
You sir, are a true artist, evidently, driven by perfection. Yes, ask some friends about using a pulley and electric motor to spin these gears without the laborious task of hand-spinning these. Great job!
A fantastic project, start to finish.
Unfinished, the cogs look good, but once you'd filled, sanded and painted, they look superb.
cool transfer technique for the lettering. I'm not sure if I've ever seen that. So simple and effective. Really enjoying this series. I picked up the plans and will share once I've made it.
So cool Neil! The whole assembly together and the variety. Mr favorite is probably the rusted one and the blue.
Perhaps, a motor in back of the wall (with the switch on the front) to drive a shaft through the propeller, or the rusty one? And, clear grease on the teeth?
Great fun!!
Neil, you are amazing sir. Thank you for all the educational and entertainment videos you post. 🙏🏻
Epic Neil - bloody marvellous! You never cease to amaze me what you come up with and what you can make work. Well done 👍
My favourite is the blue one. The bright weathered hammer finish looks 👌
Holy cow, Pask - this is amazing! Great work! The "fully rusted" one really looks like a casting, especially with the embossed text.
I made a set if wood gears for a Mech eng school project. (Nothing compared to this.) Alot of fun. It blows you away when you have them all set up and doing work.
Great job on the fit and finish of yours! Amazing work.
Chuffing’ awesome. How you find the patience to finish these projects is beyond me. You asked for opinions on favourites, difficult, but I would have to go for the hammertone blue one. The blue in conjunction with the rust effect…brilliant. Thanks mate.
Looks absolutely awesome. It makes such a nice centerpiece in the workshop.
If I may give a tip. Buy a bootle of graphite lubricant. The dusty stuff and apply it on the teeth when it is spinning. It will leave a metallic edge on the parts where it is touching.
That is what I use when I make scale models. Something different. But kinda the same
Great project Pask! I love every bit of it, but the drive gear with the curved spokes is my favorite.
Fantastic, really like the blue cog but they are all amazing. Thank you for making the series.
Loved the flaked of paint on the bottom right cog, but the rust on the last two gears look great as well!
Really nice! I like the one with the blue center. Your attention to detail is fantastic. Well done.
Seriously fun. I like the the way that each cog has it's own character.
Oh so that’s how you say his name! I watch Matthias too, him making his own bandsaw was cool. Both of you are amazing at what you do!
Wow! Just the amount of patience needed is admirable! Very well done. It turned out absolutely beautifully!
This is the coolest project i've seen on youtube.
That is really cool. I definitely like the cog with your name on it the best. It really does look like a metal cog. The sound when all the gears are moving is pretty cool too. You don't hear big machinery sounds like that very often anymore.
What a phenomenal demonstration of unique skill!
Very cool! I like the fully rusted one as well. It looks like it came straight from an old factory.
Turned out amazing! By far my favorite RUclips channel!
Amazing! I have never seen of rusting paint before. One usually spends a lot of time removing rust. I must say the effect it makes is terrific! And yes, do add a motor. I would suggest a car windshield wiper motor but I think that would be too small and too noisy. Whatever motor you choose, may I suggest you mount it behind the wall in a sound-proofed box. Silently rotating gears and prop in your videos would be so cool!
That’s one hell of a complex air-con Neil 🤣
Really interesting. Love the rusting effects.
That is amazing! Your persistence is admirable.

Now you can add a pulley with a counterweight so you can make propeller move some air hands free, summer is coming!
Great project that we all enjoy!!
