[modeleng] Re: 3" Burrell

Hi Andy

Can't help with the first two queries, but a good way to clean up a valve 
port face is to attach a piece of fine carborundum paper to a flat metal 
block with double sided tape.  The face of the block needs to be about 2/3 
of the area of the port face, it can then be moved around in an orbital 
fashion to clean the face up.  I used this method to take out the machining 
marks on my 2" Burrell.

Regards
Ron

...... Finally the regulator leaks quite badly and the port face is a bit 
rough and ready! Without taking the cylinder block of and mounting it on the 
mill any suggestions how I can clean the regulator port face up so it seals?
