Keying a shaft

I am trying to create a keyed shaft, but I am not sure how you would go about doing it. I figured the easiest way would be to look at the face of the shaft and then draw the outline of the keyway, then cut it out, but it will not let me do that, or I am trying to do it wrong. I al also trying to do the same thing with gears, but I assume that would be the same process. Any help you guys have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Cory
