[WTB - UK] Gears only for gear drive, Any Ratio

I am looking to buy two sets of gears (2x wheel gears, 2x motor spur gears) to try to make a gear drive for myself as a small project. I only want the gears, not the mount, clamp, wheel adapter etc. Herringbone gears would be great, but otherwise straight cut would be fine too.

The ratio does not matter too much as I am also planning to get some new motors and will just get a kV rating to get the right speed. I am planning to use them with Trampa Gummies & Urban (125-165 mm diameter), so no size constraints. I have recently managed to get my chinese 6040 cnc working with aluminium quite well, so will try to build everything else myself.

EDIT: Bought a pair from @moon already

You can get gears from accu.co.uk

@avX @Kug3lis @moon @kaly Any chance you have some prototypes laying around or any spare gears?

I saw the website, but I don’t have a lathe to change the internal hole size, etc. Do they also do custom orders, and if they do are the prices reasonable for a one off?

Prices are not good for one offs. I’m talking £1000 minimum from there.

I have something, it’s not perfect but it should work

Well, spending that much would not really make sense for a one off project.

Let me know what you have.

Yeah I just checked it was £730 for 4pcs, MOD 1.5 20T gear which is pretty small…
