One of the problems for the diyer is that the black and white pics you often see from the install manuals are hard to compare to what you actually see in the paint.
This blog from Randy's has gears in paint which makes things a bit easier to understand
https://www.yukongear.com/blogs/how-to-create-read-ring-gear-patterns_1 There is also a good reason that folks post pics up here. Those of us with a few gear sets under our belts want to help you succeed with your own setup. Gears and bearings are expensive and no one wants to have to do it a second time.
Most importantly for me is to focus on getting the contact pattern centered on the tooth from root to crown. I do not fret if the pattern is not that perfect little oval that everyone hopes for. Just ask
@NashvilleTJ and his adventure with 2 cut gears and the awful patterns they produce. I also do not get worked up over backlash. There is a reason there is a range for five cut gears often .007-.010, it is a range that gets the job done. I always make sure that there is at least .007 but if I have a good pattern and backlash is at .012 I am not going to fight to get it lower because Murphys law say it will go to .006 instead especially with the drop in quality and quantity of shims that are being provided.
Most important is to be patient, and methodical. Lack of consistency in procedure will cost you both time and frustration. I will admit I am not the most organized person but when doing gears I make darn sure I am. Keeping a useable workspace that allows you to keep things clean and organized does wonders in how quickly you can work a setup. Having something to scribble on helps as well so you can keep notes on each variation you try and what results it nets.
