Brian,
We ran into this problem many years ago. Our shop ended up machining
two pieces, one with a reduced diameter "pin" on the end - am guessing 1/2"
OD x 3/4" L, and the other with a mating socket. Not trusting Lucite
adhesive, they drilled through and pressed in a 1/8" Nylon pin to lock the
two parts together. We continue to use this for our foil stripper drive.
Regards,
- Chris
