    Wow, great video showing the repair process and results.

    Got to remember Pipe Sander.

    Seems like one could make one with a angle grinder ...

    I have actually made such a sander for angle grinder a while ago. The speed of an angle grinder is too high so it must be regulated down, as I have done with gears, as you can see in the picture. It works fine so I'll make some safety covers around the gears.
