dowel pins!

or I've read on here people have used welding rod or cut down rivets..

If anyone gets some dowel pins in I could do with 3 of them, can't be arsed to order hundreds :teef:

"Machinists know them as "Dowel Pins". That is your Internet buzz word.

MSC (and many others) has any size you want. In this case they are 1/8 inch and .375" long. The smaller ones are 3/32" by .375"long. You can do as I did and use black oxided pins for the main pins, and shiny for the cast pins, or whatever you like. These pins are usually grade 8 or better, and hardened. They will last through many pairs of shoes."
