    Hi Paul,
    Thanks for the kind words.
    I used a home made tool steel No2 reamer as a bought one seemed expensive for occasional use.
    This is left handed as it was the only way I could mill it in the lathe at the time, works o/k and a bit worn in now so useful for a cleanup now and then.

    Regards
    Olderdan
