Question CamsHAFT Woodruff key

Does anybody have a source were they still sell these? Paragon, Pelican and vertex web pages say they are discontinued...

LR makes them, but it's a tad pricey:

I'd see if Lart can hook you up... or JoshB probably has a few floating around in his 'suitcase collection'.

Its a pretty standard key – my local hardware (professional hardware – not a ‘home depot’!) place stocks them.

In a pinch I just machine up some keys, but you guys probably don’t have a CNC mill in your garage!

Rough cut them and shape with a belt sander. You just playing with your mill.
