Description

This shows my modification to my 8 inch bolties. I simply ground down one of the jaws with an angle grinder while cooling the jaw with oil. The modified jaw goes inside the coil and you get a better cut and rounder rings than with an angled cutting technique. Reminder: always cool the jaw while grinding it, otherwise it might (will) lose temper.
