Hi Guys
Actually, the ultimate fix is to have the machine make a staking tool that fits into the press directly. One of my customers did that for me and it works perfectly. handy to have a lathe and tools that cut steel. Of course, they can make the staking tool out of tool steel, which is very hard. Give them the Keystone part as a guide for the working end.
Trying to square up an irregular-axis hole is next to impossible without either a proper lathe or milling machine. It is unlikely you could do it with a drill press and a drill table tool lock.
Have fun
