Anyone know a source for pins?? Fixin to do a re-scale on a razor.
Ace hardware 1/32" brass rod. Use a ball peen hammer and an anvil or the head of another hammer for the base to peen over the ends.
It's actually 1/16 brass rod. There is also a thread
somewhere about adjustable pins using small
machine screws and nuts, I think 0-80. I couldn't
find any 1/16 rod locally so I ordered a three
foot piece from onlinemetals.com. I got the washers
from Micro Fasteners. Check your local hobby
store as people here seem to find the supplies you'll
need there.
Classic Shaving also sells Dovo replacement pins if
you're only looking to do a set. I bought a set and
I think they look kind of cheesy. I'll never use them.
If you want them let me know and I'll send them to you
and you can decide whether you like them or not.
