Tommy, Greg,

I've pressed up pins that had gotten one too many licks with the four 
pounder in the restringing process. Yea, I went to sleep. I used a little 
machinist's jack with a 0.25" pin instead of the standard flat top on the 
screw. It works fine, and there's no more danger of cracking the plate than 
wedging under the pinblock for stringing.

Seems like I always learn more fixing screw ups than I do getting lucky the 
first time.
