Re: pic: 5 Inch Wheel

A much easier solution than milling out a hex is to broach it. Mcmaster sells hex and square broaches in a variety of sizes.

At $128 for a 3/8" hex broach, they're not cheap. However, they will certainly save time over milling out a hex. Also, your hex come out without rounded corners.
