Minature gears

[Bdog (Rick)]

Hi to everyone,
I'm new to this site and I would like to know if any of you can help me. I build model ships, the R/C kind, and I'm having a whole heap of trouble finding someone that can supply me with plastic minature gears for use on the various winches and cowl vents that adorn my current project. My computer skills are very basic which hasn't helped my quest at all.
I'm after spur gears with an O/D of 8mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm and pinion gears to suit. The number of teeth are not that important.
Here's hoping that someone can help me.
Cheers!

Small Parts and Bearings in Qld are an excellent source for plastic spur gears.

Delivery times are a bit off putting but they definately have the resources.

Still waiting for my parts.

I use RS occasionally especially if I need it fast but they can be a bit expensive.

+1 to Small Parts.

Yes, they have a weird way of operating (ways of purchasing and delivery times).
Great range.

I have no issues with the parts themselves, just items showing in stock for some reason tend to be out of stock and take 3 months to arrive.
You don't get the option to pay air freight it you want the parts quicker.

Also, it would be a wise choice to ask for a photo of the actual part, as the photo's of the item described, are way off.

+2 for small parts. Yeah they got everything you need and then some more.

Thankyou to those who replied to my inquiry.
I went to the small parts site and for the life of me can't figure out how to get into their online cattledog, once again my computer prowess comes to the fore, not!
I've sent an email to rs online and we wait and see.

There are several online shops that sell assorted small watch gears and other parts by the kilogram for art use

Just got an email saying my stuff is being delivered, they are reliable and accurate I suppose.
