    I’ve repaired shafts by replacing the damaged section and welding it with stainless rod (308?) before cleaning it up in the lathe. Spray welding and centreless grinding would be the preferred way.

    Remember our old friends The Maple Leaf Club? Well, Peter from nymarine has some good information posted on their site and driveshaft repair is one of the topics. Click on Archives, then Technical Articles and you will see the PDF in the lower left. Here’s the link:

    While you are there, check out their new website. It’s laid out nicely and is easy to navigate, especially the classifieds.
