This thread is great, I love the work you're doing. Once I get a place of my own (hopefully with a garage), I'll be beginning my search for some old machinery to restore and get to makin' chips and makin' mistakes. I'll probably set up a small casting setup, and smelt brass and aluminum into ingots for milling and lathing practice.

Re: pins: I've had similar experiences with the taper pins on my AR-15 front sights. Big heavy hammer, very solid work surface that won't soak up impact energy, a properly sized punch, and the boldness to give it a good solid whack.
