Going through the self storage and cleaning it out so I can stop renting it. Found this neat item. I used it once and packed it away and forgot about it.

An interesting tool. I think it would require a skilled hand to get the job done with it!
When removing some unwanted contact with the barrel on my No1 MkIII*. I made a tool using a suitable diameter steel pipe, and glued sandpaper to it. That worked nicely for the small adjustment required.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice!

It looks a tool for a skilled wood worker.
