Correct, model 1/2 not 12. It's an older, smaller model.So this is a "1/2" model not a "12" ? They are distinctly different machines?

Mind snapping a picture of it? I'm curious to see what else is out there.I think your gear is for the worm drive. Looks very similar to my No10 Worm gear for the auto feed of the table. The concave in each tooth is machined. I don't see any logical reason why a straight tooth gear would wear like a worm gear (profile).
There's definitely a concavity and a slight angle to it. Maybe it's both a worm gear for the shaft drive, and a helical gear for the handwheel... Although the teeth on Dave's gear in the 4th picture do look awful straight...
