To make a double gear with 17/68 teeth, module 0.5 for the inner, 0.4 for the outer gear, 6.5mm total thickness, 3mm bore. If you have a source for the gears alone, you might ask them for the bushings only.

Thank you for the info. The bushing appears to "fill the bill"! Maybe require minor filing (length), but no big deal. A module 0.5 likely will not "mesh" with a 0.4 gear. The 17-tooth gear undoubtedly turns another mod 0.4 gear (drum axle). Mis-matches typically "chew" each other up.

That being said I'll remeasure all the gears to make sure I haven't messed up. None the less, thank you for the bushing post, it appears to be what I need.

-- thank you.
