Expanding a bronze bushing?

I have a small bronze bushing whose OD I'd like to expand slightly so

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
That method is generally recognized as cowboy engineering.
You might hope for better life from using a metal powder filled epoxy
to fill the gap, and that's no great shakes either.
Pick a bigger bush and reduce it, if you possibly can.
