When the dog's teeth just leave the face of one of the two gears with holes cut in them to accept the dog's teeth, how much clearance should I have between the dog's other set of teeth and the other gear?

I think last year I did something like .020 neutral space. I mean, if it clears, it clears; no need to clear by a big amount. Just make sure that under no circumstances are both gears angaged at once.

Our shifting dogs went something like .13" into the gears and were something like 1" OD.
