I found someone at Cal Poly willing to help me with annealing and rehardening 901 internals so I can machine them. He said it would be helpful to know what alloy the steel is. He also asked if they were case hardened.

Hmm, I tried carbide.. it wore bits dull and barely made a scratch... it's hard stuff! It's good to know about the mismatch tho, I'll do whatever I do to both gears so they match. (what I'm trying to do is cut second off the main shaft and machine the inside to be able to use the second gear set as 5th) This is an extreme longshot, and if it works it'll be a miracle... but I have to try (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
