Tool post grinder on a lathe would work well. Carbide inserts don't like the case hardening of these "super hard" rims. Lol

I've cut down the OD of 8 pin .404 sprockets to make a lopro 8 pin standard spline before. Carbide doesn't like cutting them, but it will. I suppose shooting the holes for the splines was probably the worst on tooling.

Yes it was. Carbide end mill didn't care for it much.

Would a ceramic cutter insert work on an interrupted cut or are they too brittle?

That would work on the o.d. but not the I.D. to increase hub size

I used to run alot of big Danzco pin rims years ago racing.  What I am wondering if a 6T to use with 3/8LP picco for smaller saws could be made in small or if it would interfere with the spline. By Danzco.

I'm as guilty as one former member on here for not getting projects done haha.
See no reason for a 6 pin Picco Danzco rim being made for a small 7 spline. Probably never made because not enough call for it.
You could remove a 6T spur sprocket from its drum, enlarge the bore big enough and silver solder it onto a small spline drum.
Should work just fine as the Husky outboard clutched connection to the oil pump worm gear would still work fine.
