repinning "broaches"?

[jolly roger]

Hi Terry,
              Schaff sells them.
If it is a complete repinning.  Select the size you are going to repin to.
 Most complete jobs work well with #21.  Now that is a generalization.
As you insert the broach keep twilling it.  2 or 3 revolutions with the
roughed up section on the bushing cloth.
Then burnish about 6 times with the plain part of the wire.   Take a pin
and test for fit.
Repeat if needed.  Once you get the feel, just be consistent.
Once you get the hang of it, you will never look back.

Have fun.
Roger
