Re: F/P Gearbox Drums?

Actually, what's proven to be extremely successful for us has been to avoid the octagon entirely, and just turn an appropriate sized round slug that fits the hole. Flange it so it doesn't slip in the output shaft of the FP, and screw it down in between the slots of the output with some small screws- 5mm or 10-32 works great.
