EDIT: Sorry off topic

I don't test your code, but the first thing is you need to create closed loop for profile. See this topic it can help you to create closed loop. Method CreateClosedPolyLine works in any 2D sketch (not only in drawing).

Why you don't use built-in functionality?

You can see the result of built-in functionality for a reference. Try to reuse modeling concept and implement your own. But it will require a lot of time.

You can try to create a template for the gear and just modify its parameters. It can be easier then create the model from scratch by code.
