The wheel is 36" dia., .3125" thick and has a 14" hole in the center and

needs to be 118 teeth that are 3/8" deep and have a leg of the
triangular tooth that is a radian and the other leg is 60 degrees.
I see doing them with a hacksaw and a file after blued and laid out by

it on the BP.
Hire a machinist :-)
Ain't that cheating?
