What you need to work on first is the contacts for the simulation, you can suppress a gear mate and use instead just contacts thats how I simulated that Diff on my models

One pretty good tutorial on a Geneva Mechanism can be found here: http://gupta9665.wordpress.com/2011/04/22/animating-geneva-mechanism-in-solidworks/

The basic tutorials are included in SW but they aren't very clear do you have SW Motion?

Adam, there's a book. Creating animations with SolidWorks. It's the most comprehensive and has basic motion tuts. It's called "Creating Animations with SolidWorks"

What are these "books" you speak of?!?

Yes sir, ill give those a try..

Sweet thanks Indrek
