Original plan was to do the entire shaft from scratch, less the keyway. I'd farm that out. Digging through my stock, of the two pieces of 5/8" round stock I had, one was too short and the other was bent.

The lathe and I are getting better acquainted, though there are still some issues to work out between us. I'm getting used to its 90 year old quirks and it's giving me fewer middle fingers. I turned down some Oilite bushings for the swing arm of the mini bike project over the weekend. it took a couple of attempts to get them right but the slop between the swing arm and the shaft is is now gone. One more thing to do on the swing arm and I can put the mini bike back together and get it out of my garage.
