Jules, 3 offset peg holes will work fine for the above.

If I actually wanted to cut 4 total tooth types for 4 specific gears I'd just have 12 peg holes, yes? They don't have to be in the same area of the base. Simple.  :thumbup:

But let's stick, for now to the design for just one gear type, above.  :whip:  :beer:

Joules:
Ok, got you are basing it on one gear.   You have me thinking about my thread milling setup being used on the lathe for bevel gear cutting now.

vtsteam:
Yes, that kind of thing happens to me,too!

Also your bar idea is nice for a more versatile gear cutter. I'm just limiting myself on purpose.

vtsteam:
Anybody got links to dwgs of simple small hand shapers for ideas?

I do have Gingery's shaper book (power) -- practically memorized, and well, actually I have a partially assembled Atlas shaper in the shed. But I'd like to see what's out there that is simple.

Joules:
Do you have an old tailstock you can convert to lever operation.
