 pivot screws
Author: jim lande@ erols.com

I just finished repadding a metal Selmar Bb from
around 1930. Two of the pivot screws bind, slightly.
Obviously, I can leave some slack in the screw (and then hope that I can find them when they shake out in the case.)

The pivot screws are the point type, rather than the rod type.

Should I get a reamer or should I sand the points (not to flaten, but to take some metal from the whole 'cone')?

Just curious, any preferences point types vs rod types?
