Would it be possible to drill though the gear coller and axle, say .7mm, and glue a piece of rod in the hole to lock the gear and axle together?

 

Paul.

Have you tried Loctite 603?

Thanks for the replies, I may try and refit the gears and axles once I have degreased them and the bearings. My drills will not touch Romford axles.

You need to file a small flat at the spot you are going to drill. Don't forget to centre punch before drilling. A piece of tape, to stop th drill bit wondering off, has also worked in some cases.
