@turkey_hollow_rr posted:I find that if I lift the end of the piece I'm adding, so the pins are pointing down a bit, they seem to start themselves easier than if I try to push straight in before pins are started. When the pins start I push level but with a fair amount of side to side wiggling.
I do the same. I slipped once and drove one of the little daggers straight into my knuckle. Ouch !
Well, at least they don't spin like tubular track pins. The real problem is with the Gargraves turnouts. The center rail sections move when you push against them to get the pins in. Not locked very tight.
