+and <https://www.tec-science.com/mechanical-power-transmission/involute-gear/calculation-of-involute-gears/>
+
+```involute_gear_profile()``` returns a polygon that can have the bore and spokes, etc, subtracted from it before linear extruding it to 3D.
+Helical gears can be made using ```twist``` and bevel gears using ```scale``` parameters of ```linear_extrude()```.
+
+Gears with less than 19 teeth (when pressure angle is 20) are profile shifted to avoid undercutting the tooth root. 7 teeth is considered
+the practical minimum.
+
+The clearance between tip and root defaults to module / 6, but can be overridden by setting the ```clearance``` parameter.
+
+The origin of the rack is the left end of the pitch line and its width is below the pitch line. I.e. it does not include the addendum.
+
+```involute_worm_profile()``` returns a tooth profile that can be passed to ```thread()``` to make worms.

+//! ```involute_gear_profile()``` returns a polygon that can have the bore and spokes, etc, subtracted from it before linear extruding it to 3D.
+//! Helical gears can be made using ```twist``` and bevel gears using ```scale``` parameters of ```linear_extrude()```.
+//!
+//! Gears with less than 19 teeth (when pressure angle is 20) are profile shifted to avoid undercutting the tooth root. 7 teeth is considered
+//! the practical minimum.
+//!
+//! The clearance between tip and root defaults to module / 6, but can be overridden by setting the ```clearance``` parameter.
+//!
+//! The origin of the rack is the left end of the pitch line and its width is below the pitch line. I.e. it does not include the addendum.
+//!
+//! ```involute_worm_profile()``` returns a tooth profile that can be passed to ```thread()``` to make worms.
