Nice one Rusti. A tip for next time you use fibre board for gasket paper. That board is not very resistant to oil and breaks up eventually. What you can do is make a weak solution with methelated spirits and shellak, soak the cut casket in the stuff until saturated and allow to dry. This will make a much better sealant against oil. Worked on my motorbikes so it should work for your late projects.

Thanks a lot rusti!!! I bought a junk celtic 14 a few days ago for a very cheap price. And when it was delivered to my house i realized that my wife is going to kill me 😂😂 because it doesn't run 😂😂 and it takes a lot of space on our driveway. But it was cheap like 200 dollars. When i checked it the electrical was pretty busted and the gearbox was flooded with a mix of oil and rain water plus rust 😂. But the headstock is in prestine condition. Because of your video i just got the idea how I'm able to fix the broken gears. Again thank you very much rusti!! You're the man!!! Godbless and keep safe.

G'day Rusty. Excellent job cutting the teeth on the shaper, which I think looks better than with a gear cutter. Just wonder why you could make a gasket from a Large Cerial packet, single cardboard about 1/2 mm thick + . The modification turned out very well, plus the gearbox ran very quiet. Excellent, catch you on your next project

Nice work, I have to do the same job to a harisson lathe feed gearbox, at least six gears need replacing. Gremlins have been living in there for too long. Unfortunately there are two different gear pitches in there so i would have had to buy two different gear cutter sets, and affordable ones are probably made of cheese, so instead i bought a shaper last week and i am going to follow your example and pursue the wire rolling technique.

@@jimdean7335The video by Geoffrey Croker references a magazine article. This was 'Gear Cutting With The Shaper' by someone writing under the nom de plume of 'Base Circle'. The article appeared in the September the fourteenth issue of Model Engineer magazine. It is available online. There are other videos on gear cutting in the shaper. All require a jig. Michel's jig requires a gear of the same number of teeth as that being cut or a factor thereof but there are other methods of acheiving this.

"I'll be back." - Arnold Schwarzenegger LOL I'll be back too! I though you might drill a couple more holes in the last cover, on the side facing the camera and through the tabs there. tap the tabs and have a place to put some hold-down screws. may still be a good idea to keep the cover from rattling. Lathe is nice and quiet, why mess with something nice? Also, I always suspected there would be a use for old printers. Nice job as always!!!

I like that gear cutting fixture. Very handy. I'm curious if you have ever tried to cut internal splines with the shaper. I ask because I have a project that I need to cut 6 straight sided internal splines and I am thinking I might be able to do this on the shaper. Indexing it, though, will be my biggest challenge.

@532bluepeter1

You can index with a jig similar to Michel's. Mount a gear on the same shaft of the jig having teeth in a multiple of 6 und rig up a detent to engage with the existing gear teeth

It's indeed very satisfying.

That was a good fix on the gears Michel. A few questions: It looks like a lot of work in your gear cutting jig. Can you grind you shaper tool to the involute profile for the gear and just cut the teeth without the blank rotating? Did you find out where that ring went in the gear box?

@Rustinox

I will make a seperate video where I explane shaping grears in more detail. And indeed, I did find the correct place for the ring.

The gear cutting looks fine. How do you "step" teeth when one teeth is ready?

They are wonderful machines but, they are a bit fragile on the gear box. Be sure the clutch on the lead screw is in good condition...Because if the clutch is not working properly, you will have to make new gears!!!!☹ Good luck😉

I've never seen shaper gear cutting before. That's a wonderful technique and although it requires a gear for copying it doesn't need a tooth-specific cutter . Speed-wise, how does it compare to cutting teeth on the mill? I probably wouldn't have bothered tapping and screwing, drilling across the press fit boundary and pinning would have been fine. Damn fine fix overall, though.
