Hi All,
The cylinder hone arrived OK and looks just the job!
My next problem that has me scratching my head is how to set up the cylinder for the machining of the port face.
I want to do this on my milling machine if possible using the vice which is spot on.
I have done the two ends and they are each now the correct and equal distance from the port openings as in the book. The bore is also now OK awaiting final honing.
The port face as cast is pretty flat but at a small but pronounced angle in the transverse direction, (rt angles to the bore)
As I am supposed to use the outside edges of the casting as reference for this operation I cannot seem to see how to set this up properly. Just me being dim I expect but would appreciate any help. I also need to mark the amount to take off which does not seem straight forward either!
Regardds,
Martin
