Ok, here's a couple quickie shots. It's rude, crude, and ugly.
And it'll do exactly what I want. Therefore in my eyes, it's beautiful!

Should have just done it and been done with it. The manufactured version
of what I originally asked about probably would have cost more than I
wanted to spend anyway...

Very nice, Jon. Man, that gear is tiny, relative to the pitch of the
worm. Your ratio is down around what you would expect to get from
regular bevelled gears.
I'm assuming that you want the binding effect that prevents the gear
from driving the pinion? Or you're looking for more smoothness than
you can get with ordinary-quality bevel gears?
Or what?
