Just curious!
The best one was built by Sunnen, Model KN, look on E-Bay. It was made to be used just for Rods mostly when just one pin went bad. You jacked the car up, pulled the pan, put an electric motor and V-belt to turn the crank, the machine was clamped to the pinand the metal was ground the main part of the pin, and centered of, I Think ????????? off the Radius to keep the same stroke.
