That TOTAN is unacceptable. Shame on CPR, that one must have slipped through.
Ron, is there any way you could use a template to paint the circles around the inserts? Seems that would be the easiest way to get circles.

Quoted from kruzman:I am not sure what you mean. Please send me a pm if you have a concern with your pf. I dont know who's is whos when it comes to pinside names, peoples names and emails. So at any time if you ask me a question, just make sure to mention the pf title and maker and I will know what we are talking about. I am not at the shop, and at the shop the jobs dont have peoples names on them unless they put them on there (which is not a bad idea).
So let me know.
I was looking at your photo of the Quicksilver and how you were hand painting the black ring around the insert. I was just commenting that if you had a template, that ring painting would be must faster and less stressful.

Quoted from kruzman:As for the install kit, I use the bit that looks like a football the most to remove the clear to predrill. It depends on the pf. Like if it is a mirco and he has the big dimple holes. If it is a pf where the dimple is fully cleared over, I use the big round bit. I use a flat top bit for the t nut depressions.
On some pfs that have the pop-bumper nail/screw lugs, I will use the football, then I predrill and then I will use a big flat bit to get the clear out of the way for the head to counter sit (unless the lug is the type with fins to stop it from turning. you dont want those fins splitting clear).
Dave macy of dmacy on pinside has had a lot of experience with the bits, even more than me. I always use the slow speed on my dremil, but it was his idea to use the cordless drill with some bits.
Is there a different thread about the kit, the bits and how to use them? id like to research this.

Quoted from BobLangelius:Ron, You are talking about automatic center punch. works well as a light weight impact tool. Best is from Starrett:

Others are cheaper...
Be well my friend.
I use one all the time, Woodcraft has them for about $10? I dont remember. But if you do sheet metal, or steel you may need a nicer one. For wood, the plain ones work great!
