A rotor for a motor includes a plurality of laminations. Each lamination includes a central opening having an outer surface. The outer surface is defined by a continuous non-circular curve. A shaft includes a cylindrical portion configured to engage the outer surface. The cylindrical portion is sized to define an interference fit between the cylindrical portion and at least a portion of the outer surface.
