Thanks for the link some good stuff on there...

Now as for machining it don't matter how hard it would be. If it can be done and be done better then that's the way it will be done. With the power that this would be making (1000+ ) there is no need to make the E-shaft out of anything but the strongest mineral I can get my hands on even if it adds a bit of weight.
