I'd like to hear the explanation too--I've never honed guides. Maybe I'm
missing something. I'm always a little nervous about hones creating an
hourglass cross section when they stroke out of the top and bottom of the
work.

Hmmm, it was mentioned here that bonze valve guides should be honed, not
reamed.  I'm thinking size is size, no mater what the method. You can
change the size in smaller increments honing but if you have the right
size reamer you can do the job, no? Am I missing something here?  Somebody
straighten me out please.
