That Overtons I've seen were pretty good machines. They were built like brick shitehouses and decently featured.

Green does not seem to be very old, most likely it has a backlash sampling system.
Very Pfauter-ish. If you want to do conventional you just put an idler in the feed train. It might have the 'minch' feature as well but I think Pfauter made it so you could turn that on or leave it off. You might want to leave that off at first but latrer on, if you do any production, it's very nice
btw, next thing you need is a hob sharpener. Properly sharpened hobs are very important and getting it done outside is more than iffy. For a while you can send them to your friendly neighborhood competitor (gear shops tend to be unusually cooperative) but in the end you'll want your own.
And then a redin. You do not want to be deburring teeth manually for very long.
I'm sure we'll think of more stuff to buy
I read the Overton's manual today.
Oh, by my standards, this is almost a new machine)))))) Yes, most likely this machine has backlash compensation, probably with the help of a hydraulic cylinder.Well, it's 1979, 4 years older than me.
Can you quantify that statement, please?This makes excellent spur gears...
Since I am making these gears on a retrofitted 75 year old machine with an (at the time) $6 Arduino I would assume you can tell that I am just happy they have teeth.Can you quantify that statement, please?
Is there some sort of rating or class?Can you quantify that statement, please?
You forgot "super poopy" and "totally bitchin'."Is there some sort of rating or class?
Aren't gears just poopy, medium, good enough and excellent?

I had no idea. That's why I asked. It seemed a bit optimistic in my experience, but I'm completely willing to be wrong.Since I am making these gears on a retrofitted 75 year old machine with an (at the time) $6 Arduino I would assume you can tell that I am just happy they have teeth.

And I thought they graded them the same way Russell grades motor oil.You forgot "super poopy" and "totally bitchin'."
