Thanks Russ, but I have a 1 ton arbor press in the shed outside my dad's shop that's yet to be used by me, and probably only once or twice by him.
I think I'll be able to tap the pins in with a ball pein hammer. I have a half dozen of those in different sizes, all but one made by my long deceased maternal grandfather. He was a blacksmith/farrier by trade, imported from Canada to fight in WWI with the US Army 21st Engineers. I treasure those hammers!
