Thanks for all the inputs so far. There was me thinking one single standard answer would be echoed by all, but it seems there are as many methods as respondees. It has been helpful though, so thanks again.

That's because engineering is as much an art as a science.

One method I have tried, on the pin ashort threaded bit just under the head, the rest root dia, the clevis, head side tapped, the other hole root dia. The thread made a fairly tight fit. Another way I tried, both holes same size, pin with a thread on the end of reduced size, the nut tightens up to the shoulder, there is a couple of those on the Stuart Turner S9 that I rebuilt earlier in the year.

There are normally 10 ways to do the same job and it all relates down to the skill level and equipment owned by the user which method suits.

I for one and a I dare say 99% of people on here will not own a 1/8" expanding reamer, doesn't meant to say it will not work, just not work for us.

Doesn't mean to say one method is better than another, just different ways of doing the same job.

As a "back yard mechanic", I would drill to the pin size. If the pin drps through, lay pin on vice jaws and hit with the pein of a hammer, this would have put a bulge in the pin side. tap pin into hole.

what does full and bare mean??

[Peter TuckerParticipant @petertucker86088]

Hi Fizzy,

Full is a little over size and bare is a little under size, for example if one was out on a job and had a rule with 1/16" devisions full or bare would be not on a rule mark but no more than 1/64" away, very full and very bare are more than 1/64" from a mark but not quite 1/32". These are of course "best guese" useing the tools and materials at hand and may or not be "fit for purpose".

Hope this helps.

Peter.

It depends if you are talking about bellies or fits.

Full=fully to size, a bit bigger

Bare=barely to size, a bit smaller

Similar to a slack handful when measuring volume?
