I am definitely not an expert at gear design. I have designed some limited gear systems for FRC in the past, but not with custom made gears. I do have some experience with custom made sprockets, which I used the Machinery/Machinists Handbook as guidance (back in 2001 when I was still in high school). I think most CAD programs tend to have "canned" operations to make gear/sprocket profiles now.
