I cant recommend these highly enough

 http://www.ebay.com/itm/251923305743?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Great pegs with pins and springs and cheap postage

The knockers of all things out of China will be along in a minute to cast doubt and gloom   ::)

I have bought 5 sets and very happy with them  ;D

Came from a recommendation on here so others are using them to .

I use these also, I realized how good the material was when I had to drill-out the pin holes, wrecked 5 drill-bits!  :-)

Here is a tip when drilling stainless steel. As mentioned before S/S work hardens when you work it (this includes drilling and machining) the rule of thumb is low speed high feed. This means you should select a low drill speed and apply lots of pressure to the drill.

This is a general rule which will be helpful when drilling, if you can get your hands on a drill press all the better as you can apply good pressure with the machine and hold the workpiece firmly in the vice. The risk of the drill biting in and spinning the job is greater when you are applying a greater pressure to the drill, so keep that in mind also.

Good advice or you can sharpen a masonary drill or use an ARTU drill bit
