Makes perfect sense to me. just make sure everything is centered when you weld it up. Do it just like you explained and it will work great. Only one change I would make to your proposed coupler is to eliminate three of the four setscrews and just use one. The way you have it set up will work if the setscrew goes through the "one piece coupler" and actually contacts the motor shaft itself. All that setscrew is doing now is keeping the coupler from sliding up and down the motor splines. Hope this helps.
