Repinning....Can I pullease get more responses?

[David Ilvedson]

Avery,

You aim the part of the center pin your nipping into your center kit.   Haven't you ever had a center pin nipping contest.   I can easily get the nipped part or the nippee 10 feet.   So those babies pop right into the kit.   Every so often I clean it out.  

I do as much as I can in the home and repinning is certainly doable in the home.

David I.
