Thats not right either Peter, it was my dumbassed mistake, not yours. I called myself giving it a good inspection as I was makeing that socket, but obviously not good enough. I'm still fighting with my plastic eyes, plenty sharp, but depth perception at short ranges doesn't seem to be quite as good. I'm using a lot of those Hilitchi crimp-on pins, and I don't always hit the hole in the rear colored socket that well. A year ago, even with my cataracts, I was doing a lot better. Frustrating, & forcing me to admit I'm not the man I once was, not even once. But I'll see if I can get it back out of there tomorrow, and I still have the box & most of the packing from the 2nd one. I'll just put the 2nd one in this box, and wait for the fixed one for the 6040 gantry.
