The Calculator works great but doesn't work with a Grizzly Rotary Table I came to find out.
Anyway I have the book for the rotary table so I was able to calculate the number of turns that I needed to cut a 30 tooth DP18 14.5 gear. And I made a couple of mistakes, #1 was not having enough material sticking out of the jaws of the chuck on the table so some of the teeth I wasn't able to cut full length, #2 was missing a turn instead of turning the crank 3 turns on one move I only went 2 turns and well it really messes up you tooth pattern.
Anyway heres a couple pictures
