[QUOTE="Magnetoman, post: 130133, member: 2806"] I made the small end bush for my 1928 Ariel from PB1. Looking at my notes, I used a carbide insert in a boring bar to turn the ID to somewhat less than the desired figure, then reamed it to size with a HSS reamer. The fact I used a carbide insert in the boring bar doesn't mean the material needed it since only in unusual circumstances do I use anything other than carbide. My notes don't give a figure, but typically when I use a reamer I start with an ID that's ~1/64" smaller than the final size. Anyway, my notes don't indicate PB1 behaved in anything other than a gentlemanly manner. [/QUOTE]
