No, sorry no idea where to buy it. You don’t say what you are trying to do with it. Do you also need a matching ring gear or are you hoping to match something you already have? I do know that a handheld kitchen mixer has a worm gear and ring gears in it. If you could find a old one. You could use a machine screw as a worm gear if you could figure how to attach it to a shaft.You could make a worm gear by winding a stiff wire around a shaft.
