Waiex 0211 - match reaming spars, using a dog

Postby kevinh » Thu Mar 17, 2016 5:12 pm

I moved my spars to my empty garage so I could position the drill press appropriately. I decided to use a 12-16lb dog rather than the more standard solutions, do you think this will affect the results?

Should be ok. Thank heavens you didn't use a cat!

You should only use pilots for reaming. Dogs are suitable for gears and clutches.
