Re: Need for Aluminum Gears and Sprockets?
I am getting great feedback. He has great products and the tolerance with be +-.001 if needed or +-.002. We would probably stick with the AndyMark bolt pattern. He will be including

-#25 and #35 tooth sprockets (Hub and Hubless)
-Quality as good as Martin or Boston Gears
-Keep 3/8th face width, 20dp, 14.5 degree pressure angle
-If hexing is needed (upon request)
-Pricing will probably be around Andy's, a bit more due to the material.
-Pretty sure he can arrange something for shipping, kinda like McMaster Carr.

The only thing is that he likes to mass produce. But he does custom orders overnight (just charges a tad more).
