As for removing the old pin's I cover both sides of the razor with masking tape then slowly file over the head of the pin including the masking tape that's covering the pin both sides until you file the head completely off and you are starting to file away the washer, be careful now not to damage the scales if you are goinig to keep them, now place the razor on a small piece of wood slightly larger than the razor with a small hole drilled in the wood same diamiter as the pin including the washer, a tiny squirt of WD40 on the pin head, now very gently with a small punch tap the middle of the pin, it may may start to move, do not remove the tape till you have the pin out, but remember the scales could be very brittle always keep this in mind. But on saying that, you may also find that it will not move that easy, then you need a 1/16 drill and a firm hand and a true eye, then drill the pin out.
