Have you been verifying the contact pattern?
How do you produce the tooth involute on your fly cutter? Explain if possible.
I suspect fly cutting will cause a slight in incorrectness to the Involute form.
But if the application is none critical is should
suffice.
Your application would be nice to Know.
This is a very economical method for cutting 1 to 2 parts.
Unfortunately I have never being involved with fly cutting worm gears.
