lol in my world you use what ya got ! i can't afford to go out and buy even the cheapest metal !
lol....
A friend of mine gave me a real good method of repairing the idler gear on the Logan 922
....I can just make a 1 sided bracket put a short pin in the upper right corner for the gear to sit on and with the bad teeth to the right
the good teeth to the left I can drill a hole for a nail to go through and lock the gear from turning
and simply pull the gear off and rotate 1 tooth to index the gear by the gear itself....
this will be necessary after the teeth are all brazed up....
......
I already made up the bracket.... did a dry run and it works great ! cutting the teeth in the brass should be no problem now !
even with my homemade fly cutter and piece of file shaped as the cutter.
this all sits in the vice of the 3 in 1 its a simple but effective method of using the gear itself to index it !
..... neet stuff !
Later !
