Hello.

Over the recent couple of years, I've been building a Burrell 4.1/2" gauge traction engine. It's nearing completion and needs the gears to be cut.

I don't have gear cutting experience or the necessary tooling and would prefer to to have someone do these for me.

If you have any personal experience with such a person or company, I'd be very grateful to hear from you.

Kind regards

Howard

Adrian Nuting will do gears for engines other than the range he sells
