Aside from this, you will probably need to make an adaptor for
the back end of the spindle which looks like a gear which has had its
teeth turned mostly off -- a series of square bottomed notches around
the OD which engage an lever which prevents the tube from rotating
relative to the spindle


I forgot to address this part. It's not clear from the photo if he has
the right pieces, but the J.F.K. closer uses a pin parallel to the
spindle axis that engages holes on the side of the adapter.
