Re: How to turn down gear hubs?
Also, on most sprockets that i have seen of more than around 2.5" diameter or so, they were made by welding an hub to a hubless sprocket blank, if you look closely and see a weld bead at the hub/sprocket interface on the outside of the hub try just cutting that out with your lathe, for us the hub would then just drop right off.
