This works really well; last year 228 machined a custom aluminum coupler for the window motor (as seen in the photo below). It took a long time to machine it manually, but I wouldn't hesitate doing it with access to CNC milling (which I have here at WPI :D).

If you are making a custom hub, keep in mind that the small, ~.25" shaft doesn't rotate. Only the gear on the outside rotates. So, don't rely on using the small shaft to hold your hub on the gear.

Wow, how in the world would you do that manually? Even with a digital readout and a nice mill, don't you need a CNC machine to move in x and y directions at the same time? I guess if you had a rotary table, that would help a lot, but would you still be able to get everything to the correct dimension?

228 has a rotary table and my dad, who made the part, is a machinist.

I second that. We've occasionally had to make some strange parts that are best done on a rotary table or indexer. Rotate the part so many degrees, then move it so far in the x direction, reset, rotate so many degrees, and repeat :)

If you have DRO you can machine it without a rotary table or index head. Just calculate the center x,y locations of each location. If you have an index head, it can be done with a drill bit in a Bridgport. We have done that in the early years when adapting motor/transmission combos. you can even do it with a drill press with careful layout, but you are apt to generate a loose fit using that method. Just make a good sliding fit to the same outer diameter as the gear on the Keyang motor.:) :)
