[AT] El Diablo shift key

[Dennis Johnson]

One other possible fix it to take the loose key and poke with a center point or chisel several times. In addition to making an indention, it should also raise the surface a bit next to the indention. Kind of like manually knurling the surface, or roll threading which increases the OD. That method could save  you a few $$$, plus occupy you for some time if you want a challenge.
(I do like the oversized key method if it is available in the time needed.)

Buy the next size up (or the oversize, which I did not know existed) and then hand file it so it's a very tight "drive-it-in" fit.  If you think you need to you can put a dab of epoxy in the keyway, behind the key to keep it from sliding out.
