Do what you wanna do, but I have learned to NOT beat on those...
I shall explain.
Recently I took on a couple of nice, original ones...(this is typical!)
Attachment 276791
Then I unpinned them;
Attachment 276792
You can see that the pins were bent, slanted, collars seized and flattened and not disposed to tightening at all.........Whatsoever.
Attachment 276793
Bust some scales trying for way too long to tighten by tapping.
It becomes obvious after a bit. Tapping on a bent or slanted pin is like tapping on a spring...Scales in-between! :)
