GAIL GRAHAMS ADJUSTABLE HONE

[Don1966]

This was a weekend project I decided to make, it is an Adjustable Hone. As you can see from the Quarter next to it it is not made for big shafts.
I did not do any built photos it just basic cutting. It work very well and was featured in the Model Engine Builders Magazine.
Thought I would share it with you.

Regards Don

Neat! What issue was this in? What did you use for the stone?

It was issue No. 25 Brian the information for the stone is in the magazine. I am sure you will have use for it.

For those in the UK who don't have access to this magazine, Bruce Engineering sell casting sets to make this type of external hone at very reasonable cost.

You would need to download their catalogue from here.

In fact anyone into model engines should download the catalogue as it can make you drool in places with some of the engine casting kits available.
