I've looked around at the different Involute Gear cutters and still confused.
What I was looking for is what is the most common size pitch used for cutting gears for American made machines.
I have a B&S No. 5 21-25 14.5 DP w/ 7/8" Arbor
I find more of the 1" Arbor size for sale than the 7/8"
I can get either Arbor size for the mill so I guess that doesn't really matter, but would like to have all the same size.
Also I am seeing some are 20 deg and 14.5 deg DP.
I am wanting to make some new gears for the Craftsman Lathe and if I get a bigger Lathe later I want to make sure I get the correct ones.
So, which ones should I be looking to buy?
