Now that the fictitious e penis measuring device discussion is done with I'll tell the OP my method.


I simply tighten the mesh till there is no play between the pinion and spur then back it off juuuuuust a tick so there is a bit of space between them. Basically enough play to feel. If there is a high spot on the spur so the mesh is tight I set it so the slight slack is at that high spot.

See us guys that have been at this awhile know exactly what you're saying and how you do it.BUT he's new at this he has no idea how big a "Tick" is.Now the rule of thumb for years was the paper method.But it seems a lot of guys think it's to much of a gap.That's why I started using newspaper.To me it gives it that just right click click..ya know? I think he needs something he can put between the two gears and then push together and tighten.That way it takes all the guess work away from it.
