 If you do have a hand drill, follow (**D**): mount the same bit in the chuck, cut a small triangular piece of tinplate, and wedge it into the chuck gap. Press the tip of the triangle against the back of the spinner; this lets the spinner rotate freely without the drill slipping. If you do have a hand drill, follow (**D**): mount the same bit in the chuck, cut a small triangular piece of tinplate, and wedge it into the chuck gap.

 This method yields a well-centered spinner comparable to a lathe-turned part. In (E), drill a hole just large enough for the pinhead. In (**F**), glue a small wooden plug into the rear, let it dry, and file it flush. This method yields a well-centered spinner comparable to a lathe-turned part.
