Cameron, we are not squaring off anything. Basically you are going to take an 1 1/2" dowel, wrapping it with 220 sandpaper, sanding at a 45 degree angle to the plane established by the 2 bore centerlines , and perpendicular to the discharge centerline. This will create a minimal uniform surface in the damaged area. Do not use commercial walnut dowels the grain direction is wrong. You have to make your dowel using either bandsaws, jigsaws, hand saws, or hole saws incorporating matching cardboard templates. Drawing this out on paper will help you get there. There should be no sharp corners making the repair this way.
