Okay I had a feeling it would not work out well especially since they are so small. For custom gearing we could spend upwards of $500 including spares. Any ideas on other manufacturing techniques that may work. I was thinking of 3D printing a mold of the gear then casting it in plastic. Would that be too soft for a drive base?
