Steve, When you mention pins are you referring to the type of valve stem that has a hole through it enabling a pin or peg to go through and is held in place with a stepped washer. I have these type on my Ruby and have only had one break in 14 years. It is a simple job to make new pegs with the correct size of piano wire obtained from model shops. I have also heard of emergency pegs being made from the shank of a suitable sized drill bit.

Would you believe it "Her who must be obeyed" refers to my Ruby as the toy.
