| 2319 forum posts 13 photos | Do you mean you wasted thousands of pounds of taxpayers money so likely a defence contractor? I don't like to blow my own trumpet like some on here but 49 years in precision machining working across various industries gives me a fair idea what is and what is not possible. Oh and my last 2 years of paid work was for a defence contractor who will remain nameless. Tony |

 23121 forum posts 1360 photos | Seventeen occurrences of the word ‘reaming’ here: **LINK** https://www.copper.org/applications/marine/cuni/pdf/DKI-Machining.pdf Some of which refer to Copper rather than its alloys. MichaelG. |
