You'd need a broach and an arbor press in order to make the keyway. It's an easy task if you have them, a challenging task if you don't. My only leeriness with depending on any event machine shop is that you're risking a wait considering the number of teams present. I tend to prefer approaches that involve fewer resources beyond my control, but your tolerance for such risk (which, having never been to Atlanta with a team, I could be tremendously misjudging) will vary.
