Roll Pins?
I'm thinking about getting 420 SS pins because they are magnetic, so the
small ones will be easier to retrieve when dropped. Doug White DOug I think you will find the SS pins NOT magnetic. BTW I have a supply of pins and if I need an assortment I would order them from McMaster-Carr. mcmaster.com. Thay are certainly not expensive. Bob AZ |

Note that he specified 420 SS, which *is* a magnetic alloy. It is the 300 series of SS which is non-magnetic.

Though for pinning shafts (one of his stated uses), I prefer tapered pins instead. (It helps that I got a nice set of Cleveland Taper Pin reamers at a hamfest quite a few years ago -- with only one size having a chipped flute, so I bought a Cleveland replacement for that one, and was still way ahead on money spent. :-) Enjoy, DoN. -- Email: | Voice (all times): (703) 938-4564 (too) near Washington D.C. | http://www.d-and-d.com/dnichols/DoN.html --- Black Holes are where God is dividing by zero --- |
