Glen,

I've tried these pins, and I couldn't get them to peen without bending. Was your little torch treatment enough to soften them? Any other tips? I was excited to find them but so far haven't had any luck...

they are called Estruntion pins.
I used a torch to anneal them real quick, and tested them on some scrap scales I made for size patterns, they work well and with the #0 brass washers from Microfasteners.com I think they will look good too.....
