thanks

be carefull..
The track pins are designed to wear,as not to wear out the links..
440 stainless would be too hard and wear out your track links in no time..
Just my humble opinion ,..A good project if you could make them out of material of the same specs as the old pins..
I'm sure you could sell a ton of them.
