Great little tool there Ken, and ahh.....nothing personal mind you.
Next time you have random length pins but want to press them in so they're all same height, place a shim (that is the thickness of how much you want sticking out of the hole) next to the pin you're about to press in and then press the pin in. The press will stop when it hits the shim and all your pins will be the exact same height.
We do this all the time for several different assemblies we do here and it works great!
