@alanhowitzer the machines that make the gears are CNC (computer numeric control) machines in other words programmable machines, they are or were made by hand at one point which made them expensive and so werent very common then as more CNC machines were made they too could make parts for CNC machines and other mechanical applications
So what started as a purely human task requiring immense amounts of time and money is now mainly a machine based job but it costs a lot!

What was there first; the machine or the gears?

@alanhowitzer You can made them from wood. My Grandfathers father build windmill about 120 year ago, there was 2 gears, one with 10 tooth and another 32. Both made from hardwood. It is quite big but it works. You can shape wood by saw, axe, knife etc.
