roller pin removal
Furnished content.
(from WoodNet.net)


I am building the music stand that was in a recent issue of Woodsmith. To adjust the riser in the base there is a knob with a threaded stud in it. The build list showed it with a 3" stud. I am not sure what dimension I have that is different than theirs but I need a 3.75" stud. This is a $30 item from McMaster-Carr with thelongest stud they carry. My thought is to just put a longer stud in the knob but there is a roller pin holding the stud in the knob and the pin does not go all the way through the knob. What is the trick to remove a roller pin that does not go all the way through?
