Cycloidal Drive Workbench update

[iplayfast]

I've updated my cycloidal drive workbench https://github.com/iplayfast/CycloidGearBox to add MasterSketches for all parts. The idea being you use the workbench to figure out number of teeth, sizes an so on, and then use the MasterSketches as references to parts you make with PartDesign.

Suggestions are welcome, and I'm wondering how I could get into the freecad addon system. (if it's worthy)

I think this is where I failed before. I don't see any way of registering to edit the wiki. Can anyone help me with that?

Getting this error when trying to select the workbench from the workbench list:

No module named 'cycloidDiskSketch'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 77, in Initialize
File "C:\Users\mwganson\AppData\Roaming\FreeCAD\Mod\CycloidGearBox\cycloidbox.py", line 53, in <module>
import cycloidDiskSketch

Sorry bout that. fixed now.

You have the import in 2 places.

Fixed again. I've since noticed that after saving files, and then reloading them, references to other files are lost, so it's not releasable yet.

I've explained the problem and asked for help here: https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=66865

MasterSketch003 has some kind of an issue. Changing constraint from -2 to +2 fixes it, but also flips the geometry.

Good Day @iplayfast

My name is Varnu Govender, I am the assistant to Dr du Plessis at the University of Pretoria, South Africa.

We are organizing the 1st Annual FreeCAD (and Free CAE) Users Conference, which is set to take place in Early 2023.

I have taken interest in your Workbench, and I would love if you could present your work at the conference.

You are welcome to present your workbench in the following manner:

• Introduction/Overview of your Workbench
• Run-down on how the workbench operates through the user interface and backend.
• A tutorial demonstrating the full functionality of the workbench.
• A showcase of something that has been created/modelled in the workbench.

In addition to this, if you know somebody that might be interested in presenting their work during the conference, please could you refer them to me (@Varnu01.)

I hope to hear from you soon.

Regards
Varnu Govender
