    Default Hercus Model A Gear

    Does anyone have a spare 100 tooth compound gear for Hercus Model A?
    I have a 127 tooth gear but the 100 is missing, as is the bush and keyway.

    Or, would anyone like to purchase the 127 gear so that I can fund the purchase a 60-63 set up + 30 tooth and 42 tooth gears.

    Arthur,

    How much do you want for the 127 tooth gear ? Might get some healthy offers if you put it up in the auction area here or on ebay.

    or alternately have a look at this website and cut your own 100 tooth gear

    http://users.picknowl.com.au/~gloami...25rev7-n2.html

    That website written by another forum member, I think its pretty good.

    Another good ratio is 47/37 = 1.27027027027etc. the difference is quite small and the total teeth you have to cut is less than 100.

    Thanks for your post, Bill.

    I've had a quick look at the excellent site you noted - I'll give some serious thought to making a 100 tooth gear!!

    Default Gears for Hercus

    Arthur
    I have been thinking about your 100 tooth gear problem.
    May I suggest you contact "Pipeclay" on this Forum.
    He has made me gears, & am sure he could help you.
    regards
