I have a Snap-On adjustable reamer and an old .814 king pin reamer.

My question is, I seem to have trouble setting the adjustable reamer correctly. Meaning, when I measure the sizing, it fluctuates enough with the slightest movement of the caliper that it's out of spec.

When measuring an adjustable reamer, I'm assuming you want to measure the outer most edge of the cutting blades for the correct sizing.

Any tips for setting up an adjustable reamer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
