I am getting started on gear cutting and my first reference is confusing me. I have a copy of Gears and Gear Cutting by Ivan Law Workshop Practice Series # 17. In chapter 12, Making Gear Cutters, page 114, there is a chart dimensioning the cutter. The way I read the chart the numbers given are to large. The numbers are stated as being in inches but the smallest button, for cutter # 6, is 7.8". Where am I going wrong in my interpretation?
