Mrs TYA Brought me Breakfast in bed.
That aside we had a very pleasant day out
Have a look on Thingiverse for parametric spur gears, they need (free) OpenSCAD to generate your choice of tooth-count, DP/Module etc. And there are even parametric bevel and helical gears...
Me, I use TurboCAD Pro for gear generation, cos I can

Thanks Dave the free Open Scad thing is where I get a bit confused . I've spent a few hours on Thingiverse but couldn't workout how to get the full data from it on to my printer. I've had a mild stroke a while back and retention of complex info is not easy at present . It might change though …. Do you have an" I d- 10- T5 " guide as to how to do it that you'd like to share with me and others on site ?
Currently I think I've become reasonably proficient with the basics of Fusion 360 and will be able to make my own parametric designed gears . Fusion 360 has a neat button called print , it slices, can put webs & supports on drawings and allow you to increase/ decrease the number of reference points the printer nozzle will visit amongst may other things .
This is my first self drawn print using Fusion 360 & a Joseph Prusa original i3 3D Mk 3 printer . It took about 30 hours of watching the videos then four attempts at getting the drawing done.. I had problems with constraints and some of the chamfers on angled planes till I spent half an hour removing everyone I could find .
Size of the part o 18. 2 mm tall by 22 mm long by 21.46 mm wide .
Now I'm almost ready to start prepping them to make a tree of three for lost low heat plastic casting . Casting the tree in standard plumbing brass using my home made furnace for the job as soon as I get the casting centrifuge made .
Just don't tell the better half I said it! She's been after a dog for ages, but with my shifts and her working it would be alone for big stretches of the day, and the house isn't really big enough for a dog plus the 2 cats and us. A walk is definietly better with a dog or two.
I know it's off topic ..I apologise but think on this post afore you kennel your dogs & cats .I have a black lab who spends three days a week at the kennels - loves it! We joke it’s like Ibiza for dogs, he comes back knackered every day and keeps him quiet and sleepy for a few days

That looks like a Stanley #64 spoke shave.

I would invite you over to view the shops and places I go to.
But I want to keep getting the bargains.
No problem. I’m having a big clearout and lots of stuff is for sale. Sadly you’re a bit far away!
I would have planted my knuckles up that mans nose and asked him to call the police so they could investigate what was going on, These people should never be allowed near animals.I know it's off topic ..I apologise but think on this post afore you kennel your dogs & cats .
Never again will I kennel our dog here in South Wales .. Five years ago , the last time we put him in kennels was for three weeks , he was fuly uptodate with injections , worming & flea treatment.
I'd turned up unannounced a day early to collect him , the kennels owner was reluctant to let me have him three & then saying he hadn't been groomed , alarm bells rang big time .
The poor little beggar, whimpered , cried & yorped from the minute he heard me speaking , till he jumped in the back of the Sedona .. it was nearly two weeks before he's stop following me about like a shadow & that was with me training him all over again to stay whilst I moved a few feet away ..increasing the distance each time. As soon as I got out of sight he'd come tearing after me.
He was in a supposedly highly recommended five star kennel , I took him to the vets the next morning ….he'd lost six kg off his 27 kg weight and was a gibbering wreck , full of tape worm , diarrhoea and fleas. His coat was full of his poop. The 20 kg bag of his feed chicken & rice feed that would normally last him 30 days had all been used .. to feed the rest of the kennelled dogs no doubt
What he was crapping/ squirting out was rough milled undigested barley most likely sprayed with a week beef stock to get the dogs to eat it . We specifically asked that we give them his normal food for he has a wheat intolerance difficulty .
When our vet saw the state of him he was fair spitting with anger , suspecting that he'd never been out of his kennel & pen at any time for exercise or human contact , possibly not even being allowed to go into the pen just shut up in the kennel .
