<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Get a heavy set of pliers that have a =
sopt that

form the
becket. Tapered jaws work great as you can mark several sizes of pins ie =
2, 3,
4s.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Use the pliers to form the becket then =
use your

the
coil. Or you can wait a little for the new coil making tool comming soon =
