Re: Custom Gearbox Without Automated Machining?
Machinist were building gearboxes way before CNC and DRO although those are great tools if you have them. You can lay them out with a machinist scale and a scribe. Youtube is an incredible resource for this kind of stuff. Here a couple of videos comparing the different methods. I would recommend machining the side plates in pairs the whole match.
Hole layout part one
Hole layout part two
On youtube: mrpete222 has many great videos on old school machining. THATLAZYMACHINIST is another good source.
