How about that for slow.
This is the result of about 10 hours of learning to use Alibre'. I'm totally hooked. This is almost as much fun as making chips and the clean-up is so much easier. This is output from the $99 version and though this version does not include automatic motion, motion can be simulated using the (rotate/precise placement) function. In this video, the shaft is rotated 5 degrees per step and all of the other parts and assemblies follow along according to their respective constraints. It may take a pretty fast computer to get this kind of results. I'm using a laptop with AMD 64 bit dual processor.
This version of Alibre does not support direct output of motion video, so I have captured the screen using a free program called "Jing". I'm not real happy with "Jing" but it is free so if anyone can suggest a better method of capturing screen output to video, let me know. The output from "Jing" is in an ".SWF" format which cannot be uploaded to Photobucket so this one went to Youtube. I need to do this better, I know, but I'll practice.
