That's absolutely wild.

Each woodruff key is set to serve a different point of interaction through the CNC AutoCAD designer. Like a surgeon has to cut and modify organs.

There is only two diff keys in these engines one size for the crank and a slightly wider one for the clutch shaft and the cutter used for the keyway is most likely used in a end mill!I fill the original keyway with a weld then chuck it in the lathe and clean it up then put the cutter in the mill and re time my crank 7 degrees retarded! The cutters are available all over the net like this one cheap hss will do a few cuts there are carbide ones that last but they are not cheap like the afore mentioned!
