Some oil hardening tool steel and a small lathe like my 7x14 little green monster would come in handy here. There's really not much to that pin. The little Chicom lathes are too expensive now for what they are. Mine was just under $300 in 2000 and after some cleanup and upgrades like the 14" bed it's been a good little machine. Little is the operative word... but pins and bushings fall right into its' tiny work envelope. I can stuff it under the bench after a spraying the unpainted parts with Rustlick 631 on a shelf with an oiled canvas cover. The 16x42 South Bend ain't so portable and I don't like making small pieces on it even using a 3" chuck or collets
