Couldnt agree more. Fact is, bevels are hard, Ill try to make it so some work, some dont, basically we'll just have ot
live with whatever we ifnd the limitations are...unless we all want to buy 5th axis machines..

Just for fun, a 45 degree chevron bevel gear section - these really want to be 3-D printed, if anything.
