Believe it or not this is a work related question--
Does anyone know of a shop or business in the UK who can do a very good job of resharpening reamers (as in the commercial aircraft quality)- preferrably carbide tipped ones. I figured that if anyone would know that someone here would.
Thanks
Bill

Bill, call someone at Airbus.(Let's see if <u>that</u> word gets censored!) Then you'll know which places to avoid.
I'll ask at my work tomorrow. We have a place in Coventry that does our stuff over there, but I don't know the name.

By the way- this is not as weird as you may think when one works for one of those big airplane companys in Seattle :smile:.

I don't know why but I never saw your first comment until your next one posted??
Coventry could be very possible too.
(and, Yes the OTHER company's name is not used around here too often- at least not in polite company!!)
Thanks
Bill
