Unfortunately the part of the shaft I want to modify is inside the motor.

I had to cut down a stepper motor shaft from 1/2" to a little less than
3/8" to fit an encoder.
The motor had 1/2" shafts on both ends.
The motor was a nema 34 with flying leads. I taped the leads to the
body of the motor.
I chucked the 1/2" shaft I did not want to machine in the 3 jaw chuck.

Assuming the bearings come off, maybe dip the end you are machining in hot
paraffin? After it sets up it should make a fair chip dam.

I was thinking: Wrap it with cling wrap or maybe cover it with grease so
the clay doesn't adhere and then cover it with clay. When finished,
press all the swarf firmly into the clay and then remove the

I have a motor that would be about right for my lathe conversion, if
it didn't have a brake on the back. (a nice short motor is useful for
a Lathe X axis).
I am considering re-machining the rotor shaft and the end cover to
make it into a shorter motor without a brake.
The problem, clearly, will b
