I can only say that the emery method worked for me. I wish Tony Cording still had his Prince with the feeble brakes. I know Dan had a go at it and Robert tried as well, using the proper lathe method of trueing things up. I was told that nothing worked, the brakes remained very weak. It would have been good to try the emery on it.
I think the emery method works because it matches things up as they actually are, rather than how they ought to be. And it takes off just the minimum amount.
