By unscrewing the feeding device the springforces, the securingl' means up wards carrying with, it :at the. same time the: sleeve member on the top boss- 29Li-ndicates v the tool sha'lt, having at its upperend an actuating means 30, and'at its loWer end a removablymount ed cutter 32, having a number or equior other suitably spaced cutting edges 33. By themethod shown it is pos sible to utilize frusto conoidal members of different. si zes-Jand shapes Without materially altering the parts of thej'foundation unit.

It Will be noted that the'ffoundation" unit is bo dily removable from the remainder of the device, 7 and may, be used independently thereof. rThe foundation unit is shown as ,being integrally formed but be of composite form. 'By the means outlined there is ample pressure available through the feedingdevice for'retaining the cutter in the desired cutting relation withithe valve seat iivithcertainty and reliability. It will be ab lity to idisconnectthe various parts,:and
