Seating pins just means you have seated the strings by the friction between the string and pin. I, Terry, and a bunch of other folks drill bridge pin holes deeper than necessary, and drive the pins in to finish height, without filing the tops. If you try to bottom one of these pins in the hole, you'll drive it below the cap surface trying. Ron N
