Center Pin

 Ron,

Thanks for relating what you did.? That's pretty much what I had in mind.? No one who has responded to this has made a case for the tips needing to be so sharp: I will pass that on to my inquisitive assistant.? Didn't think there was (manufacturing expediency, perhaps?), but you never know.

?

The very first time I tried to slide one back in the case and 
snagged it, I grabbed my whet stone and slightly rounded and 
blunted the ends of all of them. Now they slip into both the 
bushings, and the case easily.?
