I never found a sheet of sandpaper big enough to surface a head and never trusted the results. And how about the cast iron cylinders? I have found that cylinders that have never been surfaced are usually out by about .004. Any experience in this dept?
MR. COMNOZ.... while I am here perhaps you can give some advice on my current problem. I have a loose bearing in a Goldstar case, drive side, the outermost. The machinist I usually go to says give the case a light knurl and install the bearing. I would like to plate the bearing and LIGHTLY bore the bearing hole to fit. A really big problem is that there is very little material in the case to machine away, otherwise sleeving the bearing would be a good option. Any ideas? And how thick a plating can I get? I would like .002 on each side, total .004 increase on the O.D.
