mase001 Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 K, just talked to my machinist "business partner" and he says, "oh hell yeah, we can do it." A couple questions, does everyone want Stainless? or would Aluminum work?←I vote go polished stainless...Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderlord Posted December 13, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 FYI...Heico pins have a plastic insert I BELIEVE way up inside the aluminum and the thread is on the plastic. You push it down and for lack of a better work, the metal rod grinds thru the plastic to stay on...Mason←sweet, thanks for the info Mase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serge Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Perhaps anodized aluminum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REVolution T5 Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 how about white gold with a diamond on top? btw. wouldn't it be easy to just take the aluminum rod that has similar diameter, cut it to the right length, drill the hole on one end and tadah you got yourself aluminum pin, anyone with the right drill should be able to do it and that wouldn't cost more than 2 bucks a piece :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the Heico one. Clylindrical. You can see what the 70 series ones look like if you look at the first post in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mase001 Posted December 14, 2004 Report Share Posted December 14, 2004 Well, I still vote for stainless steel polished. Now, I may be a little biased since I already have brushed aluminum Heico pins. :-)Anyways, I'm in for whatever.....Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
