I know this can be done (as I have seen way more complex stuff than this) but I don't know how hard it would be. The space between the six protrusions is .134 which is pretty small. Is a 1/8" end mill that is at least 1 inch long a common thing? Thanks.
EDIT: Forgot attatchment, added now.

Hmm.. this looks an awful lot like the hubs for the skyway wheels, just with a hub & keyway attached...
If thats what there intended purpose is, why not just machine a plate to mount to the existing hubs?
