Hi Pat,

I use a rotary planer called a "Safe-T-Planer" on my drill press with a =
sliding table arrangement to hold the key. I have a bushing plug sized =
peg in the table that helps locate and hold the key, with appropriate =
relieves in the sliding table to allow for shoes. What led me to this =
was that I wanted something that used the bottom of the key as the =
reference surface rather than the side - which is less reliable. I can =
send you a digital photo if you want.
