>I am having way too much fun playing with mine. Throughout all of this blademaking, trial fits, trial runs, etc, mine is staying put pretty well with no peining. Seems to me that only a little will be needed to hole it permanently. I also want to check out the box store for some thick brass brads. If I can find one that fits, it will already have a head on it and there is half of the peining job already done!
