There are actually 3 prints here. The other is the attachment pdf above the first print.

When i did mine, your friend will notice one major issue, those slots on the inside do not go all the way through. This makes broaching it a problem. What he will have to do is actually make some sort of relief cut on the lathe, then broach it.

I made my own bushing ,if you look at this thread it explains how I did mine.I used the proper size woodruff cutter to create the slot bottoms just like the original,then hand broached in my lathe.
