RE: Poly pin?

[Rich Kinsley <rlkinsley@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't remember what the pin goes into to lock but I imagine it's just 
the round, hollow shaft. Therefore you should be able to just drill it 
out. Hmmm, I bet a drift pin punch would shove the broken part into the 
center of the shaft too. Then just clean out the shaft when it's out.
