Special tool KD-870
We were visiting our friends at our local engine rebuilding shop, TDC Engines, and saw this tool clamped to the corner of a work bench. Its use wasn't immediately apparent to me but it is a grinding wheel for removing material while setting the end gap of rings.
Of course there would be a tool for that!
Apparently there is also an electric version, which might be a just a little aggressive in removing the few thou usually required.

I've used this manual version, and even then it's prudent to only turn the handle once before checking your progress...
That's what the guys said!
