In this video, I make some MOD0.6 involute gears using the gear cutters I made in my last video. The gears are made from mild steel and are going to be used in a model five-speed gearbox. In the video, I use my home-made dividing head and a rotary table to index the gears. This is the process of incrementally rotating the gear blank to cut the correct number of teeth. I am using a Myford Super 7B lathe and an X3 milling machine.
