Re: WANTED - Cylinder reamer
When I wanted a reamer I found that all the ones on eBay were in the USA, and none of the sellers would post to the UK.
When someone my son knew was visiting relations in the USA, I bought a reamer on eBay and had it posted to his relation's address there. When he returned to the UK, he brought it back for me.
If all else fails, I have read that a reamer can be made from a spare mandrel, or a wooden rolling pin turned to the correct profile.

Look- if any of you in the UK or EU need stuff off USA eBay that a seller won't post overseas, let me know and I can help you out.
