Another possibility is the Keystone 1453 shaft coupler. Mouser has them
for $1.92.
Brass coupler with 1/4" id hole, setscrews. Won't work on early T/TRs
with one-piece final cages (maybe) but should work fine on those with
removable top cover.
Pure rubber surgical tubing will work, but definitely has a limited
life. See older TR-7 dial friction bushings.
Heat shrink might work, especially if you put a piece of #14 or so wire
inside on the "flat" of the shaft before shrinking.
There is a heat shrink with a "flowable" material inside that conforms,
but might not be removable if you ever wanted to remove the cage!

Hi all,
Am sneaking in here, xyl is on a somewhat warpath with time
spent over latest black box from hamvention Hang in there with me
Garey K4OAH I may get to work on that T4XB at 2 AM.; She hasn't
spotted that there are two other pieces......I think I'm in for a
rough summer.
Hamvention/Ebay
Funny, Day 1 of the Dayton Hamvention (Friday) there was a guy that
had a pair of L4B RF decks, no PS's. They were gone in hours, I know
one was short a tube, one was $300 the other $350 asking.
But in any case there is a person on Ebay (yes Evan!...Upay) right now
that has a pair of L4B decks only "fully working" buy it now for $450
or $550.
Coincidence ...? Condition ?
FWIW there was not a whole lot of used Drake stuff around...of the
older stuff it seemed to me more Heath, Hammerlund, and National.
....some Collins but ?
Ebay;
Other than on Ebay there is a TR3 that has the couplings for the
Plate/Load/& Tune shafts that look like surgical tubing....got me to
thinking heat shrink now that the gentleman from Muncie no longer has
his fittings available. ...anyone done anything like that?.....
