Let me know if you need more information.
Do you have any techniques for doing this well? We had a bad experience with really small tools (1/8" end mill for hex, 1/16" drill for corner point holes) in steel. We were feeding at under 1 IPM for most of it yet we managed to still break bits. I'm guessing it's quite a bit easier to do this in aluminum.

Also, would you recommend purchasing a hex broach? We don't have one, and we've recently ended up buying a bunch of gears/pulleys/sprockets that we could likely broach ourselves.

We've 3D printed with vex pro, B&B manufacturing for gates profiles (http://www.bbman.com/catalog/category/timing_pulley) and SDP-SI.
