how do you find the Diametrical pitch? and is this the first thing you have to know? for example: If I wanted to make 30 teeth gear, ho would I know the DP?
I just wanted to be clear about the formula, thanks it helps a whole lot, your videos are very informative and hope to see more (if possible), these video's are a hell of a lot better then High school metal shop class, (it wasn't a vocational school but required, so as to flex our mathematical "prowess") I'll be sure to watch the gear hobbing videos also. Thanks.

If you know the number of teeth and the OD of the gear just use this formula:
Number of teeth +2 / OD = DP
Hope that helps
