This will leave the job a good fit, with a full bearing, without much trouble, the final reaming letting the taper pin pass to its proper distance through the bolt.

Before reaming the other holes (as K L) of each end frame, the jaws to receive the bearing boxes should be tested for alignment one with the other.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "reaming" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
