Who Wants To Make Their Own Gears?

Hi. I am new to this forum, my name is Steve and I do woodworking and sculpture as hobbies.

I have developed a technique for making accurate spur and helical gears out of wood or plastic using either a tablesaw, router table, or scrollsaw. I use gear calculators with standard gear formulas to calculate the required dimensions. This isn’t simply gluing a paper pattern to a piece of wood and sawing around it, the correct tooth profile is created automatically.

I’ve got a web site with more pictures of my gears and my other artwork. I also have a youtube video showing them: youtube.com/watch?v=jmFG6unpAw4 So take a look and see if this is something you might be interested in. Thank you for reading this.

Hi Steve and welcome to the forum.

For those who wish to make their own custom gears, we hope they consider your technique.
