I disassembled the linkage, bolted the two links together to make sure the holes
are located the same, then realized I don't have a big enough drill bit.
The pin/bolt measures 0.5585", my biggest bit is ½".
Suppose I can pound the pin into a ½" hole?
I could drill the new holes ½", and drill the hanging links the same, then get a ½" pin
(I like Aneat's setup),
but is there enough meat on the hanging links to support that bigger hole?
Returning to the standard hole position would leave me with the ½" pin
in a hole that's .05" or .06" too large, is this a big deal?
Am I over-thinking this?
Guess I could make new hanging links out of steel but wanted to do this as easy (and cheap) as possible.
So far the LCC is working fine but I went to swage some more 44s and realized
the palm of my hand was still sore from swaging earlier in the day.
Maybe I just need to drill a hole in a baseball?
