So i just picked up a new to me 111-3300(enco 1340) Lathe and have two Mills one Jet and one RF-31
I want to make some new handles for the lathe as i had to weld the cast iron one that was broken. and not sure how long it will last.
but im trying to find the best solution to cutting the keyway into the handle.
i am searching for shaper tools for the lathe but only find old ones that are not very adjustable.

am i just using the wrong Terminology or am i searching for the Wrong Tool?
i have seen some people use a boring bar on a couple videos.
If anyone could steer me into a direction with a better path that would be awesome.
