I have a nice little 2" Valenite shell mill to adapt to my Eklind mill

that fit into the top of the shell mill.

Anyone have a quick and easy method?

The drive keys? Make them separately and bolt them on after the fact.
Alternately, mill them on the arbor face, bore a hole for the pilot and
hold it in separately with a setscrew.

Just a thought
