Better 3D Printed Gears

This is how I have found a way to 3D print decent spur gears.
Have you printed gears and then needed to file out the spread where the part has been set on the printer bed? Do you have a hard time trying to release the part from the bed without damaging the gear teeth?
The first thing I did was to modify the original gear file, imported from the McMaster site in Fusion360, by creating a clearance step underneath just the gear teeth that would come into direct contact with the printer bed. This
