I did this work about 7 or 8 years ago. Shaved off the original key, then cut a groove and installed a new key made of G10 rod. Finished the work with a coat of gloss black automotive-grade enamel. I reworked 22 of these fine NOS tubes, and have since purchased a few more that will eventually get the same treatment. Looking forward to finally putting them to use in the amps I'm building now.
