I could of remachined it but that would of made it a pretty close call as to it still being strong enough to do the job what with a 1.062 inch hole thru the middle of it. I'll post a picture of the original in a little while its laying on the lathe I need to make a thread gauge to fit it cause without tearing the shaper completely apart I can't remove the shaft that it screws onto.
Also wheres the fun in that, mills in a nice cool spot. Furnace and melting gear is outside in 95 to 100 degree sunshine, nothing like a couple hours metal casting outside in Oklahoma in the summer time,
or maybe its the sun has finally getting to me.
