Pinion Wire may work...

I don't know your application, but Stock Drive Products sells steel and brass pionion wire with 13T, 20 deg PA, 32 DP. 13 Teeth are not too easy to hold in a lathe, but you can usually find a collet to hold them. Even a 4 jaw chuck can work if you don't mind crushing some of your gear stock (and are willing to fuss around a bit to get things to run true).

Part number: A 1B 9-Y32013 (brass) or A 1C 9-Y32013 (steel).

If these won't work you can always have them cut or burned.

Depending on the quantity and what ever else you need done (hubs, keyways, etc.), you should be able to get them cut or burned for about $40-50 each.

Let me know if you need help finding a source to make them for you.
