Funny, if not utterly useful...

   I’m too lazy to count the teeth; and can not think of how to used this new fine pitch without a smaller gear with the same pitch.

I guess it might mesh with good old 2877 ‘Brick 1 x 2 with Grille’ as gear rack.

If it works (I have no column gear to test), 2877 shall be called the Gear Rack with Two Studs ;)

Philo you were right! The new Column Gear meshes perfectly with the newly named Gear Rack with Two Studs. (GRWTS)(1)

These are deep links to the new MOCup

The nice feature about the newly named Gear Rack with Two Studs (GRWTS) is that the “back” of the brick can be used as grooved runner. And lest I be accused of mocking the SNOT town types, I have used a SNOT technic(que) (pronounced technique.) You can see that the GRWTS studs can be placed into the technic beams to allow for conversion from GRWTS rack to become Gear Rack with Two Studs Runner (GRWTSR)

And now the obligatory video

1. GRWTS is nice, but it does not have the same ring to it like SNOT, or BURP. sorry.
