I dunno Andy. Like too many pickles on a footlong sub, which can't be done if you are handing it to me, you can't have too much cast iron unless its in the way. But thats what they make die grinders for isn't it? That thing has got to be hell for stout I'd think. That equals fine finishes to me. The kind I have to use a dremel with a diamond disk turning at its slowest & retracing the surface 100's of times to get to the final finish starting & dimension starting from 5 thou over.
