Ray is the master, and a super nice guy with top notch service! It has been mentioned in a previous post, but, chances are pretty good that Ray's tooling will be used to resize your p/s sets regardless who you choose. A lot of guys are capable of doing it, but I highly doubt anyone comes close to the experience level of Ray.

I know both are exceptionally good at what they do. I've seen sets come back locally from both. I personally deal with Lance at RC Renew and I had it come back to me looking like brand new. His turn around time and service is matched by none in my opinion. Stand up guy he is for sure

Actually I machined my own tooling for resizing, I started off years ago with Rays .21 set then shortly realized a way in my opinion to improve so I machined new tooling from .12 to .30 sizes.

Although some guys are still simply using clamps and ER collets to resize So just be aware and go by customer feedback when choosing who to resize your parts.

But on this thread either you choose will be great.

There is nothing wrong with an ER collet, as long you are using (self made) conical adapters to be sure the pinch will get a taper.

I have been using Ray for the last 3 years and have always had great luck with him. Lance seems to know what he is doing as well. I wouldnt hesitate to use any of them for work on my sleeves. I just stick with Ray because he's all i have ever used and I always have my sleeves back quickly.
