I like that lip which is built into the marzocco pf body. I am getting an e61 rocket r58.

1) Is it possible to adapt a LM pf body to e61? I have seen threads on shaving it down. I don't have a machine shop. Is this do-able for me? Are the expensive aftermarket ones pure metal that can be filed (i.e. not plated)?

2) Are there aftermarket pf bodies that are the same as a LM one?

Can anyone confirm that 12 mm is the thread type that is shared by LM portafilter bodies?
