[SEL] Re: Pinned Rings - Problems or Not? now back to nutz

Now I am confused.I went to put some square nuts on today and they were
chamfered on both sides.So then I decided to use some hex nuts instead and
dam they were also chamfered on both sides .What do I do now I am so
confused I can't stand it!It would seem that I will be right and wrong at
the same time if I use them.
