DX Pedals - getting pins out!!
bigsman:
Nah not enough pin to get a grip on unfortunately and no not re-annodizing either. DIY restoration job here... was going great til this point but these little f ers are brutal!!
Already snapped 2 of the neighbours bits lol
Borrowed his angle grinder to flatten off the pins as well...gave him it back 30 seconds later after realising I was out of my element and it was a bit overkill for the job at hand....that and nearly setting fire to the garage from the sparks...think I'll call it quits for the day as I'm seriously into muppet territory :LolLolLolLol:

As mentioned, a drill is the only way to remove your knackered pins ... it takes time but the extra work is well worth it :daumenhoch:
I'm restoring two sets at the moment ... here's the first :coolsmiley:
