hammered deep "H" stem refurb 13 years later and still going on about
HUTCHMAN:
i feel sure Neil did it this way, because he wanted it this way. He no doubt knows the square edges could be achieved with wet and dry on a flat plate,sanding the stem back and forth. I'm in the middle of doing an old DK stem. The edges are so sharp you could shave with it!!

Ffs elvis i might not be as active as i once was but you’re not the first to polish bmx parts. My parents have a old lighting business so ive sent many hours on a machine polisher.
I was using translucent powercoat 5years ago, ive done bikes in all colours, replacing crossbars, dyeing and recovering seats.. getting shit for posting a “how to de-anodize” picture thread without the correct gloves. I even won os-bmx bike of the year in 2004.
I only gave my honest opinion, sorry for not sucking your c0ck like the rest.

Some with think it's a rescued stem, other will think it's ruined. If you post something on an open forum then you must be prepared for differing opinions to yours - If you don't like criticism, don't leave yourself open to it (ie don't post it).

If I chip in, I explain why:
I didn’t like this stem because I don’t agree with grinding quarter inch off.
Didn’t like the Senior pro turning into a Turbo, or polishing dropouts wafer thin to rid them of washer marks.
Also sick of seeing endless pics of polishing mops :LolLolLolLol:

The correct method would be to alloy weld fill and machine back.. by a "professional"
