Thanks for your thoughts and calculations.  I do plan to get new gears and
other parts tested and I'll keep everyone informed.

Thanks Doug - this is all good stuff, and is of particular interest to me.
As soon as I get my other computer back on track ( again) I will send you an
update listing of planetary ratios that I have put together.
I have had preliminary dealings with a local gear cutter and we come up with
a design but I hadn't got to the stage of getting anything cut as yet,
perhaps with dimensions available from the Bell, it may be time to look at
it again.
BTW There are a range of materials for gears of this type and you may be
surprised at what you find - I certainly was!
