   Heating with the welder is my last resort.  The shaft isn't mine, 
it's one of the local farmers, and if I can't fix it tonight, the local 
farm supply wants nearly 2 grand for a new one, with overnight 
shipping.  I was expecting to have this done in a couple hours on 
Sunday, now it's Tuesday evening.  A new gear, and bearings will be here 
in the morning.

   Anyway, food breaks over, back to the shop.
