Do you have any idea on how it could be re-centered?
Yes, probably will cost you more than what you are willing to pay(machine shop) as carolinasignalco alluded to.....
What would the estimated cost be? I would expect it to be over $1000...

....I have no idea, it's been a while (like the last millennium) since I have had any machine shop work done. Since it's small enough, I suppose you could take around to some shops and see what they have to say.

.....Also note how the spindle (small round piece) inside the hub (Piece that the set screws are screwed into) is not centered,...that is what is causing the contact w/ the chopper.....the spindle is more than likely correctly centered and the hub , for what ever reason, is not centered correctly.
Do you have any idea on how it could be re-centered? Or should I just go with Chicagosiren-hunters's advice?
