I'm at the stage in this hobby (15 months whooo) where I want to buy old razors and shine them up. I have some old junkers that I got from the local antique shop and a few from a combo buy on ebay, so I took them apart, shined them up and repinned them.

Thanks to:
gssixgun - the videos and especially the point on filing the pin
Charlie - the video on using an anvil with a hole to hold the pin in place. Before I finally did that it was becoming quite comical.
Lynn - I copied your flush-cutters and jewelers hammer (found them on Amazon)

I bought #0 brass washers from microfasteners, 100 pack, I should have bought 1000 the way I kept dropping them on the floor LOL and I got 1/16 brass rod from hobby lobby.

It was a challenge to figure out the right length for the pins and still can't get them as round as I would like. I'm using the flush-cutters to cut the rod and they take a bite out of one side of the rod. They look decent from a distance LOL. I will probably cut them off and keep practicing. Of the six pins I did, I only broke one scale
