Soooo Lets just say that this thing is tough... It does not want to be sanded, grinded, or anything...
Sandpaper and a whatchamacall it just takes off the aluminum in like dust particles. Grinding wheels are chunking up like no tomorrow... doesnt grind it off.. it eats it up.. like a tinsy bit at a time (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) Anyone have any suggestions? I'll take a pic of all the pieces i've tried... |

He's trying to open up a threaded collar to fit over koni hydralics. I'd take them to a machine shop, if you grind away at it who knows when you are getting to the point of failure (cutting into the backside of the outside threads) - that would be hard to control with a grinding tool by hand.
