Desperately need HELP on gearing!

This is my first attempt do anything like this.
Looking for help without re-inventing the wheel.
My problem is that I need some sort of way to reduce the output RPM out to a devise.
I believe I will need some sort of adjustable frame to hold the gearing of different and multiple diameters.
I think I need the final output to be as low as 1/4 to 1 RPM (extremely slow)
It must have an easy way to add and subtract gears, move axles and gears to achieve my RPM goal.
It needs an input shaft for the motor and a output shaft to rotate (slowly) my device.
If someone could PLEASE send me a link to what I’m trying to achieve.
Any and all suggestions wild be very appreciated.
Thank You in advance.

Hello @ProStreet :slight_smile:

I guess you would like to make something like in this video:


but only opposite, to reduce RPM. Probably you would need something more robust? Which motor do you have and what is your output device?

Maybe you can checkout RobotShop’s Gears section, for example:

plus, to find mounting brackets for these gears.
