Yes, I’ve made them out of Delrin (Acetal) before as thy are stupidly overpriced and have to be ordered in by my dealer. One thing I learned is to bell or taper the top well at the top of the bore. If you don’t and turn it square, the gear wont fit properly and you’ll have to start over again. That gears shaft might be odd sized on these or it may have been worn but I seem to recall using a small boring bar to size the bore after drilling. Too large a hole and the gear will wobble around. Sharp tools with a small radius are a necessity.
