    After a couple more you'll look back and see that the peening needs a little more work. The best thing is to polish up the peened heads to get rid of the slight hammer mark.
    A small thing, but overall quite nice. Keep at it.

    Thanks for the advice - I'm going to spend a bit more time working the edges of the pins to round them out then polish.

    It would be a very quick class - magic marker, straight edge, dremel, cut off disc, patience, and nothing to lose .... class dismissed!

    I'm just standing on the shoulders of a pile of SRP guys with far more experience & talent than myself who post all the little tricks they've learned for shmoes like me.

    Great job and good post. I've been wanting to start a resto project pretty similar to this one. Just the push I needed to get at it!
