After a cut has been made on a tube, a pressure ridge from the point of the knife will show up on the lip of the inside diameter of the tube. Use the smooth part of a hobby knife handle to knock it down and smooth out the I.D. of the tube. A thumb nail will do the same thing. I belive it's called burnishing.
Why bother?
Because you want things like nose cones and centering rings to fit the inside diameter of the tube. Not the diameter of the pressure ridge.
