new carrier track pins

[Jim Burrill]

Last for sale was about 2 years back and were salvaged from an assembled track.

I have three tracks soaking in molasses and water to remove the rust. I am trying to prepair for pullign them out in a few months to see what condition they are in.

I expect to need to replace a few pins, but they could all be bad.

I am thinking to take one of my few NOS repair pins to a machine shop to get more made.

Has anyone else already gone through this? If it was successful, could you recommend a contact?

If I go to get enough pins to simply replace the pin in every link I guess I am looking at 250-300 pins.

If I go this route, is anyone else in the same situation? Not buying a few pins, but around 150-300?

Just a show of hands if you are at all interested. Obviously, final price may change your mind.

if someone had a shop make them up before, what kind of price did you end up paying?
