If you have access to a mill, lathe, indexing head, and pedestal grinder of any size, you can actually make your own bevel gears and regular gears to save a little on costs. Look up "how to make a gear hob". If you have a community college in your area, they might have a machine shop you could use.
Nice design for the gearbox. Looks like it can save on valuable horizontal real estate.
