If you can find a 127 division plate to make a metric transposing gear...

If you want to really go cross-eyed and brain numb make that plate.  It took me over 3 hours to drill the 127 holes using a Bridgeport with a DRO.  I'm slowly working on making a set of metric change gears for my LeBlond.

Marypoppinsbag on Ebay sells division plates with 127 holes.
