    Charles Lewton-Brain sells a book made to order for solving this
    problem. The Recycling, Use, & Repair of Tools - Alexander Weygers
    This is a great book I highly recommend it. 

    Unusual Mandrels in a triangular cross section can be made from old
    triangular files. Get thee to a  flea market or junkyard. Old files
    can be found up to 12 " long. Find some one to anneal it and sand
    the sides flush and smooth.
