Acquired a box of these, with a cabinet of replacement blades at an auction years ago and never bothered to use them until a few weeks ago when I needed to ream a bushing bore. I got it to size, eventually, but the finish wasn't great. Amazingly stiff and predictable.

I hear our friends across the pond use these a lot and would like a short lesson in how to use these things to full advantage. Speeds, feeds, tricks to get a good finish, best way to sharpen, etc.
