Post subject: | Grinding Castings...ARRRRR!!! |
So, I'm putting together a 16 for the KC Sports Show this weekend (shameless plug) and I decide to bust out my sweet set of original EPO's and virgin adjustable castings that I've never found the time to install. All we have to do is file a bit off, right? I've got four (censored) hours in this project, and at this pace, still have two to go ![]() ![]() I'm waiting the Matt's, Jeremy or Brad to chime in here and tell how I COULD have done it in an hour ![]() |

Certainly the older "original" EPO blades were a pain to install on some castings. Took lots of grinding as I recall. I think I used an angle grinder or very agressive file to do it. New EPO2s are a totally different story. They fit. |

sounds like you need an air file for that application, or maybe a reciprocating saw with a file attachment |
