Hi Colin
May not apply in this case but I’ve seen a key made from a rectangular bar. I think making a key is relatively easy, making a Woodruff slot is much harder. You really need a special cutter set up in the mill. In the case of the rectangular bar I guess it was easier to just run a standard mill cutter up the taper.
Cheers
Howard
