    Get a large gallon size zip loc. Put lower, tiny parts and hands in bag.
    Assemble while looking through bag. Parts go flying, bag contains the little bastards.
    Todays helpful tip from printcraft.
    Those clear zipper bags that bedding sets come in work well too. They're roomier than the ziploc bags.

    I gave up looking for mine after a few hours. So rather than buy a new one or two... i took one of the needle bearings out of bad driveshaft universal which i trimmed to length and rounded over edges... i bought a few extra pins the following 1500 gunshow but i have yet to install them (its working fine and doesnt look any different so why fix it?)

    Like mentioned about, I use a Clevis pin. 1/4" fits perfectly and can cost under $1.

    I haven't had that experience yet.... knock on wood. But I now have the nifty Wheeler Engineering tool that prevents loss. Well it's supposed to, I guess we'll find out on next build.

    Don't waste your money on an overpriced tool. Go to Lowe's and buy a 1/4" clevis pin. Trust me.

    You guys beat me to it, I didn't have time to read the whole thread.
