Speaking of being "in the heat of battle", I'm a huge fan of pinning gears, hubs, etc to shafts. If you're trying to install one and someone says "you have 30 seconds to be on the field", a drill bit and a quick 'snap' can work wonders, if anything to get you through one more match.  |
Speaking of that, get a bunch of 3/32" bits. they're only 52 cents here:

Just invest in 40 of them. they're only twice the price of spring pins.
I am slightly kidding but it does seem like a good idea in a hurry
It would probably be better to use a spring pin.
