So what do you have to do to the rings to make them seal properly... filing? How do you do that? Is it typically reserved for the machine shop?


You will want to file the rings to the exact measurements that Howell can give you. You need something to file with and a feeler gauge. I used a dremel in a vice with a stone disk to do my filing. I deburred the edges with jewlers files (very fine). Feeler gauge was like $5. You could pay a machine shop to do it, but I wouldn't trust them to get it exactly right. I spent hours filing them to be dead on.
