Hi all. I'm attending a gear design seminar next week and would like to brush up on my gear knowledge. I'm looking for some resources a little more in depth than the 30 pages in my machine design textbook.

If anyone has some good links or anything I would sure appreciate it. Thanks,

The old book by Buckingham has a lot of good stuff in it.
 
Eh, no time now to buy a book; leaving in two days. Thanks for the help anyways though, I appreciate it.
