The pins actually, came through the aluminums of the 'widget', they are useless. Repining is the only answer. John M.

By the time your done fiddling you could have it pinned. Do it right!

You need to repin these flanges if you want them to stay in place. The pin is too loose in the wood of the flange. The wood may have dried out, so the pin has become loose. I've seen widgets in supply house catalogs that wrap around flanges to hold the pins in place. If you just want to get out of there, push them back in place. The next guy will have to repin them. Just my take...

Numerous flange pins and jack pins have worked their way out. This is not a rebuild, merely a fix em up. Ideas ??
