Hi Ron,
Thanks for the compliment. I took 107 Pictures of my restoration.

I did take the pin to work and put it on a drill press. It looks off a little but it got kind of distorted with my caveman antics. In hindsight I should have also put the pin on our hydralic press but I had not ever used it before. It would be a good idea to set the frame aside.

Mark:
Here are a couple more pictures to help I hope.

I don't really see any difference in the two. Maybe somebody else can see something we are missing.
