That works fine (did on my first set of new studs). But it didn't work on when I put a new set of studs into a brand new hub that had no splines engraved into the hub flange.
I had to pay a dude with a press to push them in for me.

You are getting really pro with the videos Randy.
But you need a little "product placement" in the background & some pretty girls would go a long way keeping the audience attention captured.
We are talking lugs after all.

Froggy,
Are you a mind reader??? I just asked the nice young lady at the Farm Store if she wanted to do some photos. I have never seen a girl turn that color before. We will see. I still need to get it past the boss too. The problem is most of my customers have daughter her age and it may backfire. It's ok to have marketing ideas fail by not getting more sales. It's a different thing to have a bunch of dad's pissed off at us and the feds checking ID's
I was thinking something classy not sexy anyways, but it will take some time to warm up. 13 degrees isn't the best time of year for this type of marketing.
Products, hum I will have to work that into the videos some more. This is my first two monthes of being in charge of marketing.

One of my favorite catalogs to get in the mail was/is the Dillion Precision catalog (Blue Press)
here's a link to some pics of their cover shots over a few issues.

Tasteful & sexy. When my daughter was about 16 & I was teaching her to shoot she saw one of the catalogs & said "I want to be a Blue Press girl, Dad" Cracked me up.
Just check out some of the ads in the motorsports magazines & you'll see tasteful & then a few over the line.
Have fun with it.
Check out Miss Jan 1996 for one of my fav's. Must be photoshop as she would have needed some serious hearing protection/helmet & protective clothing b4 lighting off those mini guns. Ever catch hot brass down your shirt?
PS You WILL always get some blue nose who will complain, so don't even start unless you can accept that.

I found it was fairly easy to trash the threads on the nut when
using it to draw the stud into the hub. So make sure that you
get off the impact as soon as you see the resistance shoot up.
