Take shaft to a machine shop with proper tools to do the job, what you are talking about will never get the hole centered. I used to rebild a lot of steel wheel hay rakes for the Amish and many of the real bars had bad spots in and repair was to but a 1 inch shaft in bad spot long enough to reah 2 teeth bolts on either side of splice. Even with drill press impossible to get bit to go straight thru shaft. Ended up taking them to a machine shop with proper tools to keep the hole centered, not that expencive and you got something that would fit, Not something you might have to put a small bolt in that miss aligned hole because you cannot get it thru the second side of what you were wanting to put on for a universal joint, Trying to make a guide collar you without proper tooling will not get the hole centered and straight. Now if you had something off a junk item that fit the shaft to use as a guide it could work but dot to drill the guide hole on a drill press even using a drill press vise, will always turn sideways as you drill. You will not be happy wih the job if you try a do it yourself job.
