Polish out Lee size die?

[Charlie Horse]

I have a Lee .356 push die for sizing cast boolits. I want a .358 die. I don't have a metal lathe. Do you think I can polish it out with a Dremel tool or a drill press?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Go to www.castpics.net and hunt around. You will find some good instructions on how to polish out such dies without power tools.

just take some of your cast boolits and coat them with valve grinding compound and push them through you sizing die like you are sizing them.after you run about ten or twelve of them through clean the sizing die and run another boolit through to measure.it shouldnt take long to open up the die to where you want it.i did this to one of my sizing dies and it didnt take long
