Center Pin

[Paul T Williams]

If you're worried about contamination, just wear some cotton gloves. I 
just use my fingers and you'll get a feel for where the bird's eye is. 
Just takes a few times to get the hang of it

Re: Center Pin






OK, reasonable enough assumption, I suppose.  Hadn't considered the 
contamination issue.  With that in mind I'd probably try just needle nose 
pliers first.  I'd think the endless locking and unlocking of the 
vise-grips would become tiresome.

At some point someone harped about how the oil from your skin could get on 
the pin and possibly cause malfunction in the future.  This fellow always 
pinned with a small set of vise-grips.

What is the best way to hold a center pin while you get it started to push 
it through the hole?
