Anyone in SFV have a Flex/Grape Hone?

Is there anybody in the San Fernando Valley that might be interested in renting their flex/grape hone? I only need it for about a half hour.

I've searched all over for one. in the parts houses, but no one seems to stock them.

Thanks,

Have you tried Harbor Freight Tools?
I saw some there last time I passed through
They are also available through Sears

I checked Harbor Freight online. They only show the type with the three bars. No grape hones.

Seems like everyone only carries the 3 bar type hone.

I'll check Sears and maybe swing by HF in case they stock it but don't have it in the online catalog.

Bobby,
If you google "flex hone" or "ball hone" you will see plenty of sources, in all sizes.
Hope this helps...

That's the first thing I did. There's plenty of on-line sources but no one stocks them locally. Most local places will order for you but they don't stock. I'll go by Sears tomorrow since they show them online.

If Sears doesn't work out I did find a manufacturer based in Monterrey Park. Hopefully they'll sell over the counter.

I'm hoping to start assemblyof the motor tomorrow.
Thanks
