Barrie,

I reinforced the crank pins (silver steel) on my Sweet Pea (cast iron 
wheels) with 4BA socket grub screws. I thought drilling and tapping might be 
a problem, but in practice it went fine.

I always prefer socket to slotted grub screws bcause they have less of a 
tendancy to open out and jam.

Regards,

JohnP
