If You Can't Find One...,

Use old school methods. Shunting the heat transfer with heavy brass, inoculating with carbon while keeping it as hot as possible. Old shaft restored!

4 hours later, DONE! Shipping back in the morning.

Great work! Reminds me of George Schuster and the crew of the New York to Paris race winners annealing, fixing, and re-heat treating parts of their car during the race. :)
