Round hole, then silver brase in the "flat"... make flat from round stock

Have a project, need a gear for a stepper with .187" Dia D shaft. I can
make the gear; are there broaches for forming the pilot bore? Seems there
would be a bazillion different ones, depending on the width of the flat.
Else, how to?
