[edit] Merger proposal

Does anybody have anything to say about the ill-advised suggestion to merge this article with Gear? MarkMLl 11:05, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Your last revision [1] makes a merger with Gear less viable. I hereby withdraw my merger proposal. Sorry to have disturbed your circles. Necessary Evil 15:02, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't worry about it, but they really are very different. What's needed in this article is a detail sketch showing the tooth form and the clearances required to work with roller chain- anybody? MarkMLl 16:10, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

I'd say no. A gear has teeth to mesh with other gears; a sprocket has teeth to engage a perforated band (such as film), which is very different. Girolamo Savonarola 14:53, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
