Hi Norm and RLP,

I'm just wondering if the key itself has worn and simply requires replacement. Only a few thou of wear on the key will give a fair amount of play on the outer radius.

This is the same issue we have on the Model 45 Scotty's and simply replacing all the key steel and woodruff keys certainly tightens most of it up, but as Norm has suggested adding a locking grub screw into the mix should alleviate and prevent any left over play issues.

Cheers,
BB.

PS. In some cases rust can be your best friend but in the long run it ends up being your worst enemy.
