Re: My 54

Again, thanks. I've heard of them, but never used them. I will look further into them.

Re: My 54

Check Google for how to and how to make your own tool. Amazon has kits with the tool to install. There are a couple of types. Rivet nuts and another one that has slits in the barrel of the insert so it splits off into 4 wings on the backside.

Re: My 54

The time has come for me to sell the 54. I am going to list it in the For Sale section, as well as Facebook Marketplace. I enjoyed working on it, but with the Cameo taking all my time and money, I need to lighten up the load. Tons of parts go with it.
