The encoder has a 1/4" output so I took a 3/8" hex shaft, drilled a 1/4" hole in one end, slotted the hole with a band saw, and slid a shaft collar over the slot and voila. The encoder now has a 3/8" hex shaft which I coupled with a 3/8" hex gear with the same number of teeth so the feedback is 1:1. The whole plate has just 5 holes in it.
