Yes I think it was originally stamped as it consists of two pieces sandwiched together.
I guess it is essentially an internal gear.

Fairly easy approach. Trace your arc of the gear on a blank, punch, drill, then trace the good gears onto the blank and cut with a vertical band saw, finally file or grind to final finish.
This not super precision work, just something that needs to mesh with reasonable accuracy.
So its well within your skills and even simpler tools, just don't over think it.

I agree. I'm even lower-tech for this. This is a perfect shape to rough out in the forge. I'd probably bandsaw slit the teeth and hand-file to shape. A couple of hours and it would be done.

I don't have a forge (yet....).

Yup that would likely work too. Now I need a forge and a bandsaw however. More tools!

If you have access to a mig or tig I would just build up the worn ones and grind and file to final shape. A cut off wheel and triangular file and, Bob's yer uncle.
