A cylinder may be readily ex-panded one-sixteenth of an inch, butcare should be taken that the bushingis not made much larger than the cyl-inder. The size should be carefullyproved before the operation is the bushing be larger than thecylinder it will be found that whenboth are cooled the bushing has lostits perfectly circular form, and is notheld in place with any greater degreeof security than when both sizes ex-actly correspond.
