During this pandemic Paul has been a great help in both parts and the knowledge he has shared in his videos.

You have to have a feel sometimes and the feel and skill is developed over time.

Tips on reamers: A straight flute reamer is called a machine reamer. A spiral flute reamer is a hand reamer. A machine reamer is intended to be used in a milling machine or drill press where the reamer is square to the machine's table. This is because a machine reamer has no lead-in. A hand reamer has a short section on the end that is undersize. This is to guide the reamer into the existing bore. If you are going to ream holes freehand, you should use a spiral flute reamer.

@GearBoxVideo

4 жыл бұрын

Sorry not true. There are many hand reamers that are straight flute. There are also many machine reamers that are spiral flute. You are also making an assumption that you can get any size as a hand reamer and that it has a spiral flute option. I prefer straight flute reamers. Grinding a lead in is no big deal. You have to know what you are doing .

Well, y partner did all the work because I was going to school to get my GI Bill check every month and I had to be enrolled in a university accredited school. I cut way too many classes going over to my new girlfriend's house, and she woke up around 9 am. The class started at 7am we were in the shop by 8 am and I was in her bed by 8:30. Back at school by 10 am just in time for inside the classroom. O I'm not as sharp as I should be. Well at the time I couldn't tell you about RoadRanger transmissions. Well I can still do the Power comes in through the input shaft, to first gear on primary bla bla and it leaves thru the output shaft. But was on top of my game when it came to 18-year-old girls. lol.
