I either need the pin tool or some professional assistance getting the new band to fit. The thickness of the cordura makes it nearly impossible to get the pin inserted. I got one side but only after destroying the pin that came with the band and using with the original pin. Which stinks because the pin that comes with the band has what should be an easy to use slider that pokes through the band.
I just can't seem to get enough pressure to compress the band material just enough to get the pin to align with the holes on the other side.

And just to make sure I'm on topic - I wore my ring all the time when I was a mechanic and wear it in the garage most of the time now. We just recently caught a Shark Tank episode where the guys were selling safe rings made out of silicone. It was funny how over the top I felt they were with the danger of a metal ring for the average person. I do take it off to mix the meatloaf though.

I have a little bit of a rub near lock but if you are turned to lock on a track there are other problems already...
