Beginner
When considering to machine or 3d print spiral bevel gears it is a good idea to check the tooth contact. Because you have 3d models it is easy to check tooth contact in CAD. This tutorial shows 3d models made from a well-known gear software. The models look very good in 3d rotation and in section views. But the tooth contact is wrong. It means that the gears will not work well.

This is called immediate tooth contact pattern. It gives an idea about quality of the 3d model. Contact has to be smooth oval and without getting on the tooth edges at different rotational positions of the gear.
