Default track pins

Hi

some in NZ have used X4150, (or 4140) centreless ground shafting for track pins. No problems so far.

Some one in Qld suggested using lead ball projectiles from black powder type ammo. (They are apparently a softer lead than the alloy used in 9mm projectiles!?!) The balls go in alright, but don't have as much volume as the original plugs, so there is a bit of a cavity. Again, alright so far!
