According to a number of different sources, to figure the DP you take the
tooth count, add 2, and then divide by the outside diameter in inches.  If
someone can supply this information, I would be happy to see if there's
anything I can do to help source replacement 'green gears' at cost-effective
pricing [i.e. cheap].  Hopefully it's a standard DP
[20,24,32,36,48...something like that]."

IIRC, Hank Arney made up a bunch of these some time ago...maybe he still has some.
