I just completed Mod 72 and I can't believe how easy it was. The reaming took
no more than 5 minutes, I kept the inserts in the freezer overnight, heated the
reamed pieces, applied ACF-50 to the inserts and in they went. It took two
taps from a US made hammer to move them the last 1/2 inch or so.
If you lay the inserts beside the reamer, you can put a mark on the shank with
a felt pen indicating how deep it must go. I marked it so, excluding the
tapered
end from the measurement and it went to that depth with no problem. Blew
the swarf out and in they went.
The whole process took 20 minutes or so.
