How do you usually resurface your cam lobes at home?

Just wondering how you guys are doing this at home? heard a lot of other fella’s talking about resurfacing their cam shafts

Anyway tearing this number one down right now

I usually don't bother. However, If you are carefully when cutting along the stem you can get two cams for the price of one, plus the two-lobe versions you end up with fit in extremely shallow placements! /s

I gotta Guy.

This is a thing?

Absolutely!
It's done by the same guys that cauterize old fuzzy ropes.

Who does this? Waste of time.

That's what electric razors are for. Give that old rope a trim

I think when you go to reassemble, there is a way to adjust the spring tension that advances your cam the timing to allow for extra low gravity jamming.  The effect is magnified in numbers 5 and above in due to offwidth physics.

Flame cauterizing is much better and lasts longer. It creates these button heads, preventing the fuzz to pull through the weave.

Cam resurfacing is awesome when you need that perfect size for your project.

I'm pretty sure this is how Omega Pacific Link Cams are born.
