Broom handle with tape around it mate.
Anything other than a genuine dummy gearbox shaft i have found to be useless.

if the two plates are seperate and not joined so you need to aligning all the splines as well as the central of the plate then you must get a proper dummy shaft mate if not you will struggle!

lee correct me if i am wrong but could you not measure the spigiot bearing and then the clutch centre and just machine

up a dummy shaft from a piece of round bar or nylon or do you have to align two splined plates :?:
