Dommer,
To help you with your problem we need a lot more information. You have no location listed, one of us might be close enough to drop by and look at your problem and discuss it over a cup of coffee, lacking that, a picture of the damaged part would really help.
I have made many a gear before I retired, some for clocks ( which are called wheels by that group ) I have gotten as much as $250 to restore a wheel for an antique clock, others I made just for fun.
By the way, welcome to this group and learn as much as you can from the friendliest and most knowledgeable people I have ever known.
