cngodfather, I think most outdoor equipment rebores are done with hones, because it is much more cost-effective, and we can each have the fun of doing it ourselves, which is a major part of why we get involved in the first place.
We all share an interest in the equipment we work on, and we get together in places like Outdoorking because that just extends our opportunities both to learn and to help people. When you think about it, it is a pretty good deal for all of us when we can be useful and enjoy doing it.
I'll look forward to hearing more from you as your work progresses.
