Honestly, not trying to be a jerk.
Best advice is to see how far you can throw it away.
Buy new shaft, and be done with it. I have seen guys screw around and get this and get that, and pi$$ money and time away on freakin shaft, and if they would have just spent $100 they would have been time and money ahead.
I feel the same way about "cleaning" a linen wrap. Unless it is vintage and real Cortland, guys will screw around instead of just having it re-wrapped.
I wish you the best of rolls,
Ken

I have an old Meucci shaft with a good bit of warp in it. About 1/8 ". Anybody find a good way to straighten a shaft. This shaft did have about a 3/8 warp but I can't get that last 1/8" out.
Thanks in advance.
