Oh okay, good to know. So these tubes have to be purchased then cut to size I see... Anywhere sell them already precut, or would you happen to have a few I could buy from you? Just would save me some trouble, I think. I appreciate your help so far!

I got a pack of brass tubes from Hobby Lobby for a few bucks and they came in a package, each tube being about a foot in length. Using flush cutters is your best bet for getting the right size followed by a file to get the profile right. The amount of brass tubing you need to sleeve a pivot hole is pretty small - a couple millimeters is all you need really.
This is the one I got - K & S Engineering Assorted Brass Soft Bendable Metal Tubes | Shop Hobby Lobby and I would recommend ordering that. Cost + variety wise, you can't beat it.JimmyHAD:My wife told me if I bought another razor she would leave me ........ and I miss her sometimes......

Well, I ended up buying a pack of 10 pin sets off of eBay and used JB Weld on the blade's pivot hole, then drilled out a hole using a 1/16 bit. Worked perfect! It's now much tighter and I love it.
