GDS-3214
14 teeth / 0.438" pitch dia. / 5/32" bore / 5/16" hub dia.
$2.00 ea / $18.13 for 10 / $41.20 for 25.
If this part matches the specs for the plotter gear, that'd be great.
I was unsuccessful in googling any old articles about this topic. I
remember it being discussed in mid-2003 (based on where I was working
at the time), perhaps May, if that helps. If anyone has any of the
former discussion and can cough up the shaft diameter and the pitch
diameter of the gear, that'd be what we need to see if this is the
right gear.

I have several mechanisms, some as printers
(Atari, Commodore), some
as bare frames (surplus from Electronic Goldmine a few years back) - I
don't think I have 4 good gears in the entire pile. Anyone here ever
come up with a solution?
Would any of the stuff that Small Parts sells be of any use?
