I had a stroke of genius this morning while at work, tossing ideas around with the guys in the shop, and then it hit me right in the face. A brake lathe. If you have access to, or know someone with access to a brake lathe, you can machine down those #50 sprockets in no time. The size difference is 1/8" in thickness, or .125", meaning you will want to take off about .063" off each side. The thing to remember also, is the sprocket teeth have an angle on the sides, and that needs to be added after milling down the teeth, but not impossible. I wish I was at that point in my build, cause I want to try it out immediately, lol.
