I successfully removed the motor shaft and made a call to a machine shop.
He said getting heat treatment would be sent out and cost $150.00
He is willing to make a new shaft or cut a donor shaft from another motor for $50.00
I posted a couple help requests on watch maker forums. But most of those guys do not run into hardened stee and carbide tools are not needed generally.
The machine shop guy said if I can match a motor with the same or adequate KV rating that shaft would be hard in kind.
The thinking is close RPM is what is needed for stability and being the best criteria.
Any one go down this road and can recommend parts or Info?
