Bonoda Brass Table Pins w/Sockets 20 Sets

This product solved my problem of connecting two pieces of wood together exactly the same each time I put them together. They were relatively easy to install and work great at a good price.

Very sturdy for table leaves

I built some new leaves for a table and wanted alignment pins. These were reasonably priced and worked as expected.

The pin measures 0.181" and the hole measures 0.197".I was hoping for a closer fit, so I will likely press a short piece of brass tubing onto the pin and then turn it down with a lathe to 0.192" or so.The outside dimension (0.315" with a straight knurl) that interfaces with the wood should work fine for a 5/16" diameter hole in the wood.So, if you need very precise alignment, these might not be the best for you, unless you have access to a lathe to do some modifications.

I should have read the other reviews. These are surprisingly loose. There is between a 1/32nd and 1/16th inch of overall play. I was expecting a tighter fit.
