I bought a bunch of used wheel hubs for my J&S 540. On some, the internal tapers have burrs or gall marks or embedded chips. Is there a good way to clean these up? The spindle on my grinder has a perfect mirror finish and I'd like to keep it from getting chewed up. Is there some kind of stone or hone or reamer that I could use to clean up the internal tapers of the hubs? The tapers have a 15-degree included angle (European not US standard) and are about 1" OD at the large end.
One idea: glue three 6mm = 1/4" strips of 400-grit wet-or-dry sandpaper to the balancing mandrel taper, and use that to hone the tapers.
Cheers,
Bruce
