Hi Forge,
I made up a lathe change gear the other day, and it really wasn't all that difficult once I was set up.....I turned the blank on the lathe, turned an arbour to suit the blank, fitted arbour into indexing head on the verticle mill, made an arbour to suit the cutter, fitted it in the collet chuck, and cut full depth of each tooth in one pass.....
