Depending on the type of load you'll be seeing, you can increase DP or reduce face width in earlier stages. In output stages you probably don't want to go less than 3/8" face width and 20 DP.

Again, there is math that will verify these rough guesses, but that's a bit more complicated.

Is there a place you would recommend gears with 3/8 face and 20 pitch? We normally buy from wm berg because of their great selection of gears but they only come 1/8 thick. We could though double them up, but that gets to be like 40 or for 3/8 60 dollars per gear... Thanks
