Internal bevel gears

Hi, I'm trying to design a gear pair that would mesh two axes at 135 degrees (or 45 degrees depending on how you look at it). I tried several gear generators feature scripts, but none of them seems to allow me to generate this geometry.

I'm attaching some pictures of what I'm trying to acomplish.

Do you know about any custom feature script that would generate this gear pair? The 135 degree requirement is not strict, I will be fine with anything in between 130 and 140 degrees.

    Try this one, the angle between axes ranges from 10 to 170 degrees.
