You can't even make a SIMPLE gear chain without advanced scripting!
What a waste...

If they ever get articulated physics running...

Roblox may be a bit more worthwhile.

How do you make gear chains without anchoring it?

I wish they prioritized it, because the system right now is absolute crap.
So, I attached one of my specialized gears to a motor and attached another gear next to the other one.
In a good physics system, they would spin, no problem.
In Roblox's physics system, it kept sputtering and the second gear lagged behind.
I am truly disappointed in you, Roblox...

@Naruto,
I basically just "unioned" a bunch of parts to look like a gear, and attached that to a motor. Then, I attached the next gear to a hinge and placed it next to the gear that is powered.

They are still working on articulated physics, they are just still really buggy, and aren't stable enough to be used, and there is more important stuff they are working on.

Actually, the guy who was working on articulated physics quit. They said it on one of the Bloxcasts.

No, even before CSG Physics, I made gears with CFrame and did the same thing I just posted.
The gears acted exactly the same...
They sputtered, lagged, and went crazy.

In one of the more recent BloxCasts, they said that they were still working on it, though they are barely working on it.

But yeah, the physics are terrible. Making a simple door with hinges often breaks and start spazzing out after a player opens it.

You know what? You can make memories with the spazzing hinges/physics.

You can make a gear chain without scripting, all you need is a well built gear and the hinge + motor surfaces

All you need are lemons ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
