Thanks for taking the time to explain.

I'm still too ignorant to know what an "eccentric style" hone is, but I'll look that up. I still don't understand how the material removal can be "selective" around the circumference of the bore but obviously it is, at least with you as the machinist!

The experience factor needed to get your results sounds significant... something as seemingly simple as doing two at a time to distribute the loads and reduce taper probably isn't obvious to many.

Impressive results!
