Exactly why I offered my suggestion.
Steve,
I went back and reread your post and I guess I should have mentioned that there isn't enough meat on the gear to guide a drill bit. Only .080" thick which isn't enough for me to rely on for guiding a drill bit. That's why I am going to rotate it 90 degrees on the lead screw and drill a new hole.
