[SEL] Sorta O/T..gear making

[Richard Strobel]

 Howdy again;
What is the best route to take to get gear(s) made?  One is a combination 
i.e. two gears, one casting.  I also need a smaller gear...all straight cut 
teeth.  This is for manually traversing the carriage on my ole lathe.  Could 
the old ones be used for a pattern and is this something Rick Rowlands could 
do?

TIA
