Hi Dave the cutter was made from silver steel (Drill rod ) hardened and tempered. works a treat If you take light cuts.
I make clock gears with this type of cuter, it will cut a tooth in 1/8" brass at one pass, the teeth on clock gears are a lot longer the involute gears so the cutter is a little more delicate, but works just fine.
