Mild home head porting advice .

If I had to port with an electric grinder, I'd quit. I use air, which is a pain in the *** but I get a much better finish.

Either way, you have to have some way to slow the grinder down depending on materiel, tooling and desired finish.

I almost never use a stone but I do have them. I always start with a carbide and finish with a paper roll.
Agreed, except after hours of porting My case of "cold hand" wasn't even alleviated by a shop rag wrapped grinder, break-time!!
I also use a shop rag wrapped around the shank of the long burrs to help control & even brake them for control. But that end gets hot after a bit, one hand hot, one hand
cold.......................
