I have a small bronze bushing whose OD I'd like to expand slightly so
it fits the ID of a tube.
I seem to recall there was a way to expand the OD slightly with
something like a knurling tool.
Does that sound familiar?
Is there an easy way to do this? - Mike

we should make it an internet project.
absolutely everyone in the world with a lathe makes him a new bushing
insert and sends it to him.
maybe after the 80,000th bushing arrives it will sink in that in
aircraft you do it properly or not at all.
(have you been too embarrassed to ask for a bushing jERRY?)

If all else fails make it too big and hammer it in place?
