    Great video. Looks like that tool does a good job. I will consider it the next time I encounter a sloppy radius arm.

    Hi Randy, Nice Job on the bushing. Can you tell me what the AC Dodd reamer costs? I have the early welded radius arms and I am not happy with the finish you get with the adjustable reamers.

    • @LoneStarMini
      @LoneStarMini  9 місяців тому +1

      £225 (approx. $280) is what it cost me 1 1/2 years ago... this is for the basic kit. you will have to ask AC Dodd especially for the Mk1 (early welded radius arms?) mini. They were a different size and require 2 brass bushings. I have ordered a set of the smaller bushing because I too have a Mk1 mini and will need them. But wow.. the fit of the shaft to the reamed bushing was simply amazing!! I have watched many videos where folks went through 5-10 iterations of adjustments on their reamers.. no way.. not for me.

    Hi Randy. I’m here in Australia. I like your videos they cover details you don’t always see. I’m wondering you can share the details of where I can purchase a set like this? Where did you purchase? Thanks mate. Scott

    • @LoneStarMini

      thank yo Scott.. that is a true compliment. Being a novice and when doing a mini task, I too notice a great deal of detail that the average Mini UA-cam leaves absent as if it's common knowledge. Therefore I do try to capture details that would help ANYONE with awareness. AC Dodd does not have a website and it appears the best way to reach him is via FaceBook (facebook.com/ac.dodd.1). At least this is how I was able to reach him. You may wish to put something like Radius Arm Reamer as the first line of text.. as for me, I don't check FB regularly, but he apparently does. Now that I've used the tool twice, I'm so thankful I paid a little more than the average adjustable reamer.. you will not be disappointed.
