Yeap, that's me :)
The 17 or 34 tooth gear should be close enough for general fastener use. It does depend on the ability to swing the banjo far enough for engagement. I've never tried it myself so I cannot be sure of that.

This is what I found on this issue.? I have not made the 34 tooth gear yet, I've bought the cutter set and made the arbor, but other things got in the way.
I've also attached my thread calcs. (my format, my use, no accounting for taste, no promises that it makes sense to anybody else)
