I was having a look at Ron Chernich's web site it seems John Strachan of Hobby
Mechanics in Brisbane is about to produce castings and drawings for a gear
cutting machine that was published in the Model Engineer in 1949, able to
produce spur, bevel, and helical gears of modest size. Unfortunately for John
he had already produced patterns and castings before Ron Chernich had finished
the 3D Cad model and found that a number of bolts could just not be made to fit.
John is known world wide for his quality castings so I have no doubt that they
will be right by the time that they go on sale. Sounds like it will be a great
project they are calling it the GC100. Plans will have dual metric/Imperial
dimensions.
