    David:

    I’ve actually seen many of Bunn’s videos and he’s pretty entertaining and informative. I think my problem is that the biggest insert that came with both of my K&D sets is just a little too small. I went back and looked at Bob’s video and his seems to just fit inside the mainspring barrel, whereas mine has more play around the diameter. That allows just enough play for the “T” slot to jump out of the hole – even though I have it firmly on an anvil over a hole when pressing it out.

    Thanks!
    Tom
