An incomplete Guide of How to Use WIld Gears

Resources on how to use Wild Gears

Over the years I've received requests for a manual of how to use Wild Gears.  I resisted this idea for a long time.  Everyone I've ever sat down and used Wild Gears with has brought a different approach to it and done something genuinely new and unexpected.  I think that the exploration is part of the process.  Also, there is so much to cover that it is very daunting to try and capture that knowledge.  And finally I think that it would limit the exploration beyond what the handbook provided.  All that being said I recognize that there is a lot to learn and discover about Wild Gears and want to support that exploration with resources.

The first being a document that is slowly being added to and used to be included in the 'you wild gears have shipped' email.  It now lives here for download:
wild_gears_pamphlet.pdf
File Size: 239 kb
File Type: pdf

this .pdf starts to collect some of the most central pieces of information that will make Wild Gears more powerful and easier to use
Another resource for inspiration on ways to use wild gears is this post I wrote during a Wild Gears Kickstarter campaign.  It shows 8 different ways to use gears and rings together; some more practical than others.
