So I'm trying to hone my cylinder for the first time and some spots seem to be coming out good and then others look untouched. There should be pictures. Anyways can someone tell me if I'm doing this correctly or if its looking good. Thanks

Throw that hone away immediately and get a ball hone made for your blaster. That's an automotive hone with straight edges will never get your 2 stroke done right I dnot think it will flex enough inside the cylinder. And it's kinda big for your small engine so there's gonna be alot of pressure on the spring which is why it looks guaged. You may need to talk to KOR. Ken is the blaster EXPERT he will get you pointed in the right direction first time I seen his hone in a picture I thought I was looking at some nudes lol. His machine work is sexy!!! And "WHEN" I need any engine work done it's going to him.
It looks like you have low spots. This would indicate the cylinder is no longer round and straight. You can't correct it with that hone. Have it measured and confirm it's in spec. If it's out of spec, it will need to be bored.
Thanks guys for all the feedback. I just bought this hone because it was the one I was directed to. Will this hone not work for blaster cylinders? Thanks Ken for the info, looks like I'm going to have to take this cylinder to a shop. Anyone know a good place in Vermont??
I would but I'm just worried about the price combined with shipping. I'm on a tight budget so I can't if it's over $100
Ok that doesn't sound too bad, I think around here at the motorcycle shop it was $80 just for the bore
