ing a spacer .5 bore .08 length .65 outside. using a brand new .500 reamer which measures .500. the bore measure .435 ??? What am I doing
 
If the hole is only .080" deep, as your post states, you're not even getting past the lead chamfer on the reamer, so you're not cutting to size.
 
I bored and reamed a hole 2 inches deep then cut off .080?


Is that a question or a statement? If it is a question, then yes that would allow the reamer to engage and cut properly. If that is what you already did, what is the material, and how much are you leaving for the reamer?

edit: never mind, if I put cryptic posts 4 and 5 together I think I know what you did. You aren't working with plastic are you?
 
Maybe some pix of your set-up...and a few more words describing such.

Your data plan charges by the wurd or sumting ?
