This is a splined shaft that is part of the power feed clutch on the 1941 South Bend lathe I am restoring. The splines have been rounded over at the top after 80 years of use. I’m thinking I might TIG braze some aluminum bronze on them and hand file them to shape. I’ve had good luck using it on cast steel, it should work here.⁠
