 Could a place like this  http://www.rushgears.com/Prototypes/prototypes.php?fromDropDownMenuHome make 4:1 gears for Penn 113h. I'm not nearly smart enough to figure out the stuff they ask for on their "request a quote" sheet, and since I only have one set of gears, I'm not ready to ship them in to be reverse engineered.  But I'm guessing they must be pretty standard stuff.

         I've been kicking around the same thing for about a year... with that same company.  Just figured it would be a fortune, and I, like you, can't figure out how to fill out the form at all ???  I would love the helically cut gears! ;)
Hope someone can help us out

If they can make these they can make the gears you want.

At 20 items each and $137.97 per item x 2 they would be spendy at $275.94 a set, 5000 each would be a good deal at $19.98 a set.

Your best bet would be to send them the gears you want copied.

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Keta,

   Are those REAL numbers?  I wonder what 500 of each would cost?

Before you guys do anything why not find out how many people would be willing to buy them, And ask them how many do they want, to see if its worth getting involved in the project.

Just an Idea

Joel,

      One thing is for sure... If 500 sets of helically cut stainless gears/pinions were made for the 113h there would be no problem selling them in a couple of minutes... IF the price was right.  I would all but guarantee if posted on this site (alone) they would be gone before a week was out. Sal would probably take 100  ;D
Thanks
Dom

I got the prices off the link above.

500 at $27.50 ea x 2 = $53.00 a set.

Hey Joel,

      I hope I didn't come across as being a know it all (I re-read my post)....if I did I'm sorry.  Newell and Accurate aren't currently making new gears, and what's left is being sold at crazy prices ($60-$120.)  It's not a bad idea to test the waters with the boys on here, but I think when they're in hand (tangible) they'll sell better, and I'm confident we could get rid of that many (500) if we said it was to be a one run kinda deal.  Now to work on the price. Hmmm?
Thanks

so.....let me get this straight......if i invest and buy 500 gear sets at 27.50 ea. that would mean i would have to come up with 13,750.00..... but if i sold all at 100.00 a set then i would make 36,250.00..........oh baby!!!!! let me see how many empty beer bottles i got in the bin.

Looks like you emptied quite a few of those beer bottles, they're talking gears and you're talking bearings ;D.
Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

sorry i was working on bearings when i posted...........you got any bottles?
