Default Steering wheel hub slop

I just tried to install my steering wheel and there is a ton of slop in the splined hub adaptor when I put it on the shaft. I would think that this should be a nice tight fit.......

I've got a VW bug column and a Grant hub kit. The shaft spline looks good, but the spline on the hub looks like it was cast rather than cut, and is not very good quality.

Is this ok??? Is there a better way?? I was thinking about turning a billet hub on my lathe and having a machine shop spline it for me. Any idea how much metric spline cutting costs?
