[GreenKeys] M28 ASR Gear

[Russ Miller]

Bill,

I went though this exercise about 15 years ago and found that this gear is made from unobtainium.  I did get the specs on this gear and visit a couple of local machine shops.  Back then, I remember that the price was dramatically lower if more that one gear was being machined.

Good luck in your search for a solution.

Does anyone have a p/n 195157, gear 49T, gray nylon or know of any place that makes custom gears? Paul Cembura doesn’t have any in stock.
