The first year we broached keyways, we tapped them through with a rubber mallet. It worked great as far as creating the keyway, though it's hard on the broach and is not something I would recommend. (We were both time-desperate and had no idea what we were doing.)
So that said, I think a small press would be fine. The 12-ton bottle jack press we now have is massive overkill.
