If it fails, what online pencil sharpener do you recommend?

This does not answer your question, but may be the best approach:

An excellent idea. Probaby will last for 30 years.

We had one where the handle cyclinder fell off, but my mother kept the
cylinder and the rivet and I pounded the rivet down a bit and it jst
about good as new. I still have it somewhere but I use a knife to
sharpen pencils.

Ours didn't even suck in the pencil. You had to push it in. Worked just
fine.

Thanks to all for the advice for fixing broken plastic gears.
Broke with cyanacrylate & decided to give up on the epoxy.
Paid $30 at Staples to replace the crappy Boston with Bostich.

Any ideas for inventive re-use of the old Boston worm gear & transformer?
